Good Morning Thursday A B Ers

[janbee]

hello all. It's going to be another hot sticky day today isn't it? xx

[waterboatman]

Morning jan xxx You just beat me to it! Cut and paste it is then! :o}
Thursday. A clear sky this morning. Venus is twinkling away. The charter yesterday was a 70th birthday, a merry lot they were too. Much laughter and plenty of food and wine they brought with them.

When the Boaty came in.

All is well in wildlife land. About a dozen badgers relaxing with the younger ones playing. They seem to be over the drama now. Wonderful. :o}

The foxes were sniffing around the undergrowth, probably looking for breakfast.

The rookery is peaceful this morning, sentries already on guard. the seagulls are giving them a wide berth this morning after yesterdays dust up. The rooks won that one! Didn't see any gulls until I almost back home.
I saw something moving through the long grass, but couldn't see what it was. I did see a flash of black. It could have been a canine escapee, but i wouldn't bet on it as it was trying to keep out of sight, none of the regulars seemed to be bothered by it.

Once again foxy was late, as yesterday, his food was still there when I went out, but was gone when I got back. Tiggy was in at 11.30, on his own, but again taking food away.

Good to know that all's calm again in The Cotswolds. Could the black thing have been a mole? Oh, good morning by the way. Sorry... xx

[waterboatman]

That's OK jan. xxx No, far too big. I would guess about the size of scottie.

How's you this morning? :o}

[BlueToffee]

Morning jan and boaty, and other callers too.

Looks like it's going to be another fine day here at the seaside. Glad it's fine anyway as we have the roofer here repairing old tiles and lead flashing.

Oldest daughter's birthday yesterday and her hubby invited us to join them for dinner. Went to a lovely country pub and were treated right royally.

Hope you all have a good day.

Morning BT. A very civilised way to spend an evening.

Yup; the sun is out of bed and strutting it's stuff already!

[janbee]

Morning BT. Belated birthday greetings to your daughter.
Boaty, just so long as the intruder didn't do any harm to the other wildlife? I assume not. They don't appear to have been spooked by it.
Have to go now, Bl***y AB is freezing up again. ONLY AB gives me this problem. See you tomorrow. xx

[waterboatman]

Same problem here jan. :o{

I'm sure whatever it was is a herbivore.

Have a happy day my lovely xxxxx
