    After several hours, he’s moved and has been enjoying my carrot tops and Nasturtiums.image

    i think he is not so much injured as old. His ears look a bit chewed.

    He does look old and battered.  Have you any greens you can give him to save your carrots and nasturtiums?

    They really prefer flowers to grass. After he finished there, he moved a bit further up the hill and started to eat the flowers off the Derwentia perfoliata that grows all over the hill. image

    Had to google those.  pretty and probably much coveted for UK gardens where the temps suit.

    Sorry Obelixx, I should have said they are a native. They appear all over our Place. They used to be called Parahebe perfoliata, but the botanists stuck their noses in. image I still called then that, because Hubby knows which plants I’m referring to.

    I wouldn't have known that name either Pat.

    The last tree in my garden to give it's Autumn show is the largest of my Acers. It turns red, then orange and finally yellow before the leaves drop. I think it will be bare by next weekend.
