                    The view from my office window about 6 a.m. today.

                    I have a restricted view because of the wall on the left extends out about 10ft but the advantage is that the birds nest in the ivy. :biggrin: At the moment we have one blackbird and one robin building nests. It's mainly blackbirds and robins that use had four nests at the same time for the last few years. One time a wren nested there as well.

                    Of course it's difficult concentrating on my work when the baby blackbirds are there because they tend to be easily visible. The robins nest a bit deeper in the ivy so we don't see their babies until they start getting adventurous.

                    The blossom is just starting. The trees between the greenhouse and the cherry prunus are lilacs (light purple and dark purple) with clematis growing through them and out of the top.
