Poor you Ziggy. I feel for you. Our 'wonderful' thrush departed on May 18th and hasn't been back since. Hooray. Strangely, he was replaced by a...
How wonderful! They look delightful. Do you have the father? (Do I understand correctly that the Dads give birth?) Look forward to seeing them...
I can see it, clear as a bell and I usually have problems with some posted pictures. As a one time potter, I think it's just salts leeching out of...
Don't think I could tell you anything you don't already know about allotments and such, but I do give a talk called "Behind the Scenes at Chelsea"...
