Well this weekend (10th February) it has felt as if Spring has arrived. Lovely sunny days, a touch of chilly wind at times, but when that drops it felt warm. Our guests today used the lovely weather to cycle the Strawberry Line cycle track to Yatton and back.
For us though it was a great moment to spend some days in the garden getting on with all those jobs before everything starts growing too fast to keep in check. Working out there with all the birds around is wonderful. The noisy and very tame blackbirds, some of whom are good mimics. And we have a few robins, one of which is very happy to come right up when we are working, mostly out to find the odd tasty morsel, but at times seemingly happy to just watch us work. It feels like we are his entertainment. Yet he sings to us in return so it is a very balanced relationship!
