Well Hello, now that i have ported all the archive pics over to Flickr I eventually can get on with the backlog of updates for this years happenings.
At 17>19 the Honesty that now self sustains either side of the steps in is out and providing some early food for the beneficial insects
As are the Dandelions, these I leave for the flowers to be enjoyed but then dig out to provide greens for the hens and limit the proliferation.
This month one of the girls, a while Silkie, hatched us a brood of six chicks. Hard to tell at the moment but it looks like most are Silkie X Marans and only one cockerel.
Meanwhile, and taking advantage of 17>19 being up to speed the clearance and fencing work over at the "Lost Plot" is progressing.
Probably the most exciting development this month is that i have started a 10 week beekeeping course. We have been hands on from the off and i am really enjoying it. No stings so far.
