Sunday. A bit dryer this morning...well, a lot dryer this morning! Lots of belligerent cloud lurking about. I don't trust 'em!

I had to call off the charter yesterday, it was just to dangerous to go. The party were, much to my relief, happy with that and will phone the office to morrow and reschedule. The weather stayed scronkey until about the time we would be arriving back. Then the sun came out! Typical!

When the Boaty came in.

The sun was strong enough when it came out to dry most of the ground well enough to make this morning's walk as pleasent as usual. The badgers were returning home as I watched, they stopped, looked, identified me and carried on. I feel quite honoured to be accepted by all the wildlife I have got to know. The pair of foxes were rooting around in the undergrowth looking for something they'd seen.
The rookery was still peaceful, but the sentries were already out, giving me a beady eye as if to say, 'Morning squire.'
The Roe deer were down from the hill again. They didn't run off, but kept a wary eye on me as I walked past, about 40 yards from them. They're getting used to me!

Foxy was in for his supper, he's looking a lot better, his tail looking more like it should.

Tiggy had his mrs. with him again. He parked her under the table by the water dish and she had a drink while he went to bring some food for her. He's a good lad. They stayed for about half an hour until both were well fed, then off they went.

The sky seems to be clearing a bit now. Goodo!

have a happy day everyone.

What a fantastic description Boaty.
You seem content with life.

It's weird, I drive for a living and have hardly put the wipers on at all the last couple of days.

Morning hoppy. I'm glad you like it. Yes' I'm content as I can be. :o}

I live in a lovely part of Gloucestershire, right on the edge of a village, so seeing wildlife is no problem. It has to be early in the morning mind!

Yesterday there was thunder and lightning most of the day. A couple of ground strikes within a couple of hundred yards from here. I'm 280 feet up here, so a bit closer to it!
