This old wooden box had been adapted/repurposed and used as a tool/storage drawer in a workshop for many years and only today whilst having a tidy-up did I notice the printing on the sides (and the woodworm). See two notes.

A couple of local pigeons who come almost daily just to chill. The fluffy looking one has just had a wash by sitting in a water filled old baking dish which makes an ideal bird bath

Thought it would be nice to share photo of a large 4ft x 3ft painting of two horses fighting by artist Michelle Howlett and purchased by me at a local craft fair over 30 years ago.

Chafer Beetle Grub

25 Apr 2021 4 2 217
Found this huge grub in an old tree stump/root today. For scale, the coin is a 20p (pence) piece which is about 21mm or just over 3/4" across, making this monster over 75mm or 3" long. See note of him just after his nest was exposed.

This washing up liquid bottle was placed on a south facing window sill which allowed the sun to warm and expand the air inside, and by chance this little bubble was spotted just before it popped.

A European Robin who visits here daily for the odd snack or two. He eats ok and looks quite healthy, but he is unusual as always has his beak open, even when flying.
