Strawberries and asparagus fresh from the garden this evening
What more could I want?
Boy and goats
Beautiful bank holiday weather – and the first visitors arrive
Two rhubarb cakes cooling
Jam tarts and mini quiches defrosted
Fruit to cut, pizza oven on, J’s dough rising ready to be rolled out at lunch time. Bring in that sunshine and let’s celebrate being alive!
Out and about and exploring with Mother
Don’t eat these apples!
Along Mill Road is an oak tree covered in apples. They’re not the eating variety they are oak apples or galls which are created by the larva of a gall wasp injecting certain chemicals into the developing oak leaf bud.
Playing “grandmother’s footsteps” in the new garden
As I was strimming weeds and nettles in the new garden (around the perimeter of the field) I spied two partridges some way in front. I crept along the hedge hoping that they wouldn’t see or hear me. They did but I managed to get a few shots as they flew off
Out come the quads with Ma Hen
Another broody hen about to go to sit on a goose egg
A beautiful evening for planting
Too sweet
