A Sad Day

I suppose it has to be done but ND and I walk along these fields watching Kestrels and Owls hunt and buzzards perching.  Mature hedgerows and trees gone












This is what it looked like in Summer.










And now.......

Nothing to see on the walk today but look who was having a wash and brush up in the pond when we got home!

Hellebores

ND and I did some gardening this morning and uncovered the hellebores. We also uncovered several rat holes!
























There are signs of spring everywhere now













And time for a paddle to check out the water vole situation...

Goldfinches

Nettled feet again! Out late today so we didn't see much, apart from a distant kestrel and lots of crows. I'll brighten this feeble effort with my goldfinch painting

Shaggy Dog Story

Sunny and warm for ND's walk.  A pair of handsome Mistle Thrushes, hundreds of pied waggies on the fields (and what looked like Mipits) and a close encounter with a speedy male Sprawk.  All but one photo (of sheep) were deleted but ND had a grand time, and has the nettled feet to prove it!

Here's ND's parting shot!
