Spring

The garden has suddenly burst into life.

The grass has been mowed, twice; the area the Girls were on up to about a week ago has recovered magnificently, so I'll be moving their paddock back there tomorrow; the Cherry and Pear trees are both in magnificent blossom - haven't seen the Cherry look this glorious for years, so maybe last year's pruning has helped!


The bluebells are coming into flower as well. We lost a lot last year when we made our terraced area, but we seem to have a good number in other parts of the garden. I've been top dressing a lot of the flower beds, and I've also put a top dressing of home compost around the soft fruit bushes.

And the table chicks have arrived in their new home. More about them tomorrow, maybe.
