    I love the fairy wrens. First time I saw one was near Margaret River in WA. It looked like something out of Disney. Maybe it was breeding time, because it looked like it had been dipped in that fluorescent blue chalk.
    I see the fake degree spammers are back.
    There is a bit of cloud in the sky this morning, but still no sign of rain. I was supposed to be going to Scotland next week with Hubby for his sisters 60th, But I am going to stay at home. Four days of leaving the garden and there will be no flowers for the neighbours wedding. Currently, if I don't water for 36 hours, the dahlias start drooping.

    Right, that's the terrace watered.
    The Canada geese are getting in some flying practice. I kinda hope they'll be leaving soon. I can not believe how much "stuff" the produce.

    Morning all. 😄
    we are experiencing cold winds here today. Someone told me that they recorded minus 21 at one of the ski resorts - a record for them.  Brrr!

    Take care all. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    Am I the only person who looks at every cloud and thinks " is there any rain in there?" ?

    They appear, they threaten, they loom ... and they produce nothing ...

    Morning all, looks like some one left the door open last night, I dont speak mandarin

    we have lots of wrens Hosta, they love our box hedge to nest in,
    have had enough rain to make a difference and forecast is more this week, at least it’s not chilly
    joyce, surely you have had some by now?
