Whins [gorse, to those of us 'darn sarf' are in blossom up here now. Grass has been growing like fury but constantly wet - might have to tackle the sloping half of it if tomorrow's forecast holds up.
Shin splints might put the mockers on that though..... Google is your friend, had them for a 5>6 weeks now, managing to get about but bl**dy sore when walking.
Enjoy it while you can. Judging by the weather forecast autumn will be back on monday.
At least here in the Netherlands. Next two weeks low temps and lots of rain again.
Just looked at at the camera in the garden nestbox. A female Blue Tit roosts in it all year, except for about two months after the chicks have fledged.
Was empty yesterday, but got about three inches deep nesting material in it now, so she has been busy.
This will be her fourth year. They are only supposed to live about three years on average, so she is doing well. Definitely the same bird, as she has a distinctive mark, and a wonky tail. I always note down when the first egg is laid, how many, when the first chick hatches, and when they fledge.
