The days here remain warm and sunny. Up at 4.15am this morning to be greeted by the most handsome fox in our garden. He stayed for some left over meatballs and spagetti and then was off for the daily sleep. Catching birds today was a slow process but managed to bag a lesser spotted woodpecker, not so fiesty as the great spotted but still has attitude. Lots of wild raspberries and blackberries picked and eaten with the morning porridge, trying to decide whether to turn the sloes into sloe gin or not.
