Our birds do exactly the same whether they're wood pigeons or sparrows. Sometimes the garden looks like it's littered with dying birds as they...
Oh my you two have been busy haven't you? Everything is coming together so well. You must be proud of yourselves to have a achieved so much...
Now this is what I call a success story and with a beautiful rose to celebrate!! I'm really pleased for you Cheryl. Let's hope it's the first of...
I agree your lilac tree is beautiful and must attract lots of bees and butterflies. I'm a tad jealous of all you gorgeous iris. I've never seen...
Those are gorgeous iris and aquilegia and I know the bees are going to love your honeysuckle. Isn't it wonderful to wake up, look out on the...
Just lovely. I especially like the lemon Aquilegia. I'm so glad you have colour in your garden now.
I have a few somewhere in the deep, dark recesses of the attic. If I can persuade Ian to look for them I'll try to post them for you. Don't hold...
Ian had a blue denim safari suit in the seventies and a beetle style haircut. Now when I see old photographs I wonder what I was thinking dating...
As you can tell from my avatar Goldfinches are one of my favourite garden birds. We have quite a few pairs here and I'm hoping to see them...
Well done Toni!! You're right it is a weird looking creature - almost tarantula like at the front end.
I can't even remember posting it Hank so you can have all the credit. :) When I read your post I didn't recall that I posted it ten years ago....
I'd be getting rid of it no matter how attractive it looks. Your zucchini will thank you for eliminating these pests whenever you see them.
Over here it's starlings that cause damage to flower beds but I have feeders with sunflower hearts in them which seem to be keeping them occupied....
Well hello Kate!! It's been a while but I'm so glad you're back with us. Do tell us what you've been up to and how life has been treating you....
You just have to love 'em don't you? Those kids are so much more aware these days than we were at their age. Thanks Hank you made my day!!:D
I think the water must have shrunk this as there's no way those will fit back in.
I would really love to have herbs growing outside the back door like you have. Everything tastes much better when it's freshly picked and added to...
Gosh that was some experience!! I really hope that your camping trip next proves to be totally uneventful. One day like that is quite enough after...
We've had rain like that before now. Coming from Scotland though it's only to be expected - no matter the season. At least the garden gets a good...
Not having grandchildren I'm more than happy to see photographs of yours and hear all about their adventures. Do keep them coming.
