A Comma butterfly
Sitting, wings spread out, on the leaves of a potato plant
Don’t bite the hand that feeds you
It was a peaceful morning until I got down to the goose pond!
They are on the housing list!
As they grow we need to find a bigger house and run for mother hen and her eleven growing chicks. Housing is at a premium. This is the task in hand this week.
Fun and games with the kids
It’s Sunday and the other grandchildren visit – hooray!
The cats sleeping peacefully as I watch the 11.00 pm News on television
Roses and clematis climb around the barn
In the poly tunnel cucumbers and squashes are pushing up and will soon be ready to plant outside
The cows are happy in our friends’ lush field surrounded by clusters of oxeye daisies
I’m in love with my new toy
It’s supposed to last 40 minutes, when fully charged, but I asked it to work very hard and it barely made half an hour
It’s back on charge again and should be ready for duty this afternoon
I am also moved by all I am seeing and reading and hearing about the BLM movement and attach a link to three minutes from the Reverend Al Sharpton’s eulogy yesterday at the memorial service for George Floyd
New potato salad garnished with the first, freshly podded peas
The evening sky is spectacular, as always, but the air is cold
Cold enough for a fire in the wood burning stove
