Strange and wonderful sights...


Tony and I have not been venturing far, except for hospital and doctors appointments, we have had no wish to go out in the cold.
Lynsey is complaining of the cold every day on her way home from work, then complaining again when she gets home because it costs too much to put the heating on.
No matter what you say you can't win. so she will just have to keep warm with her furry hot water bottles, Pepper and Biscuit.
We had a visit from the Sparrow Hawk about a week ago, the Hawk had chased some small birds across the garden but had not managed to catch any. He sat on the fence for a while waiting to see if any would return to the garden, (he is obviously not a very clever Hawk). He moved onto the shed roof for a quick look into the neighbours garden, saw nothing in there then off he went to look elsewhere for food.

We had a very strange looking sky one evening, I often look at the sky because I like clouds and the shapes they make. It had become quite dull and I just thought I would have a last look at the sky. When I looked I was taken by surprise because I can honestly say I have never seen it look this colour before.

On a visit to the local Retail Park, Tony spotted some fungi, I have looked in my book and I  think it is an Orange Grisette. However, I could be wrong so if anyone know better please let me know













ORANGE GRISETTE.















Robin was attacking something a rew days ago, we had called up at GO OUTDOORS, Tony needs some new socks. Robin was jumping up and down, pouncing on his prey, he looked really pleased with himself. When we got into the car I could see he had an enormous worm. Robin looked at me as if to say "look at this snake I just killed".

We called up to see Elvira, she doesn't get out much either. We had a cup of tea with her and a chat, Tony asked if she could take us to a hospital appointment next week, it gives Elvira and I chance to look round the shops together.
When we left Elvira stood looking out of the window,

Until the next time...
