One of the participants (who lives in London) tells me that she was born in Little Paxton! Welcome home.

Unexpected, but welcome friends spent the day at Wyboston Lakes and realised they were nearby. Lovely to see them and a Happy half century Birthday to one of them

Are out in the fresh air,at last, in a new house and run. A few weeks together there and then they can join one or another group of birds.

We found the first quail eggs in their house this afternoon.

Does this mean that we have two females or did we overlook these speckled eggs yesterday or even the day before? They are tiny but beautiful, just like the quails.

Some try to break into the chicken run and have to be shooed out again so that the hens can go to bed.

A dear walking group friend from the village moved to Biddenham, a suburb of Bedford. We miss her company and still meet up from time to time. This morning it was my turn to turn on Waze (my sense of direction is non existent) and visit her beautiful home and walk around the gorgeous village of Biddenham.

Jack, the dog (not a real one – so need to walk him) moved with them.
