Even though the weather was less than inviting.

We have decorators in the house and just now I was surprised to see some bread on the floor outside the kitchen

I opened the door and asked if anyone had been eating bread. No …….but then Michael said he had a sandwich in his rucksack and then we realised

In times past he has jumped into Phil’s car twice and eaten his lunch and also into John the electrician’s car and nicked his food. Oh Nigel!!!!

Unusually a solitary long tailed tit visited the bird feeder this afternoon. I have only seen them in small groups up until today.

Lambs (not ours), horses, dogs and socially distanced people.

When I got home I fed Lambikin (more than the calf wants to suck the cow/human wants to give suck/give a bottle!). There are a few pied wagtails around the garden and last year one pair nested in the barn. This one was sitting on the barn roof just now. Maybe they will nest there again

The birds are still indoors until DEFRA allows them out (dependent on cases of avian flu). All the birds are keen to be out in the fresh air and mixing again – sounds familiar, doesn’t it?
