Demolishing the pansies, it is not only the fashionable and sophisticated who eat pansy flowers over their salads!
Lucy who hangs onto every mouthful of ours as she waits for her meal....
And last but not least, there is still the odd butterfly around in this cold weather, slightly blurred though.
Caught this morning, a Rachel sheep browsing in the sun, along this narrow bank, I see rabbits, pheasants and coots, though I can never tell a coot from a moorhen.
Ah well - no winter pansies for you then!
ReplyDeleteLucy does look bereft - such a mournful expression.
Sadly no, they have even started on the wallflowers to.
DeleteOh darn, he ate them all. What kind of bird is that?
ReplyDeleteLucy is giving the eye that says, “Stay away from my food”
Come tea time and Lucy is out scavenging for food, she loves her greens and will eat the chicken's and bantam food as well. Yes the two tiny birds are bantam blue Pekins,
DeleteOddly enough I too saw a Red Admiral on my perennial wallflower this morning. The sun was fully out but there was a chill wind blowing.
ReplyDeleteThe weather has really changed, the wind is cold and the sun is only warm out of the wind.
DeleteThe expression "hang dog" springs to mind for Lucy!

You would think we starve her, but her waistline tells another tale.
DeleteI am grateful to see the Rachel sheep grazing in the sunshine.
ReplyDeleteIt is another Rachel of course. Sheep round here are lawnmowers and not meat, Jo is reduced to a couple of blind sheep in her two fields, plus Charlie a 20 year old pony. Interesting point, discuss - why we blog Rachel.
