Notes from the garden, 17 April 2019

With our house move now just a couple of weeks away I've been making the most of the garden. This afternoon I had 3 butterfly yearticks in the form of Holly Blue, Speckled Wood and Green-veined White plus Brimstone and Small White. Our most pleasing garden residents are a pair of Song Thrushes who are busy feeding c4 young in a nest just across from our patio. A Swallow hawked over late afternoon and our regular Muntjac and it's half-grown young were showing well, even to Belinda's childminding children!
