mr robin


our robin has decided to visit us again and is as friendly as ever, he came and perched at the side of me on the garden bench the other day (for 2 or 3 seconds), i think the mealworms i put there had a lot to do with it, managed to take a photo of him this morning.

sheppie pie




generally i make one of these per week, i put all kinds of things in, biscuits, cakes, bird seed, sultanas, dog food, lard and suet, the sheppies love it, and with so many tucking in it doesn't last that long.

missy at 6 months


not much happening with the birds at the moment due to the sparrowhawk making regular visits, haven't seen him catch anything or seen any signs that he has, we'll just have to sit it out, thought i'd update you on our missy, she is now 6 months old, had her first visit to the groomers on saturday, the mrs is not too pleased with the result, she has found out how to get upstairs and woke our granddaughter this morning with a nip to her nose.

robin box and tomato plants




this is the robin box that my grand daughter and i made back in april, it is now nearly covered with the ivy, hopefully next year they will nest in there, and then we can see them on the webcam that is in there. took a photo of the tomato planters that i posted back in may, they are doing really well.

this photo was taken about a month ago, don't know what had happened but i'm pleased to tell you that it is doing ok, comes to the garden every day and mixes with the other pigeons and feeds ok.
