Having wonderful fun with our new pets, the two Indian Runner ducks, Sam and Frodo (respectively duck and drake). All of a sudden I am philosophic about slugs and snails... I just see them as eggs at one remove. Sam eats any garden pest that comes in her reach and lays an egg a day... even with the move, she didn't miss a beat!
I envy you those runner ducks Katherine! We get foxes here so I darn't keep any domesticated animals other than the under-gardener, who gets the foot of the bed
If I lived in a manor house I'd be slightly worried about that confession
Enjoy your hols SGL, your tan is looking great already
Poor Yvie, what a horrid day, might be worth checking out that recurring earache
Isn't it amazing what abit of sunshine can do to your mood. No wonder Verd is always smiling. Might have to start remembering where I hid my summer wardrobe (its not extensive, but I do have a couple of short sleevedshirts somewhere)
Good morning all Yes!!!!!! Wall to wall sunshine here too Chicky and the overnight temp only dropped to 10.8C No wonder I had to take a layer off the duvet in the night!
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Wintersong, yes we have foxes too... that worries me since I live in the middle of a forest... but the ducks night quarters are more scure than my own home Should I lose my ducks to foxes, I'd give it another go, but I would get also a goose. They are fierce, and rather discouraging to predators!
