🎬 Real, powerful
🌱 gardening today and not sure if things have stopped growing, are still growing or have already started again. I know a couple of bushes have never stopped flowering!

Now that was interesting. Image displayed in the mb web Posts list OK, but on the website it showed as code. Swapped from html to markdown cured it. Using an underscore in the image name caused the link to break and render the second half of that link in italics: …/desert_elephant.jpeg
Really love Natural England’s file naming…
Personally sad to see all the snow has gone, but good news for the resident Barn Owl. Hunting through thick frozen snow can’t be easy.
A pretty chilly start on Saturday, but not that cold. I’ll have to have words with my car about exaggerating again 🤨
Well @jimmitchell I’ve forked your mnml and imaginatively called it gnml 😜 It’s up on Github but the old way of loading themes seems to have gone, so will have to find out how to do that.
With apologies to your mnml template @jimmitchell I’ve been tinkering to make it even more like my old Yellow blog 😬
Love these crisp evenings
It’s been a good weekend for birdlife around here, and snow of course. Obligatory shot:
Barn Owl quartering the margins of the wood yesterday morning, followed by a pair of Peregrine in the afternoon.
Pair of Blackcap on the feeder this morning, good to see them still around, haven’t seen them for a bit. 🐦⬛
This is crazy. Snow all around and a warm wind in the face 🤪
Turtle and Bee.
Makes you wonder what’s going on here. No kind of subsidy scheme supports a bumper crop of thistles.
Soaring Buzzard 🦅
Well, that was a surprise. Sat on the decking having a small beer after work and listening to R4, when a Polecat sauntered by. Has a brief thought about going in through my open front door, but wandered out under the garden gate 👍
A client gave me a bag of the biodiversity seed mix they’d established. Coming up well in my garden 🥀
The new project 😃 ✈️
🐦⬛ At last, a good number of House Martins have appeared. Only seen the odd one or two over the last couple of weeks.
Up on the Trust land yesterday - young Lapwing doddering about, plenty brooding - weather awful.
Behind the house, Summer has come or at least for 4 Swallow, feeding along the woodland edge 🐦⬛
