avian life

One of our babies actually did a cock a doodle doo this morning. he will probably have to go!!
In other news my neighbour rang to say that they had just seen an albino squirrel heading our way!
Two skeins of wild geese, each containing about twelve geese, have set up home in the field opposite and have taken to flying around noisily about 7.30 each evening. They frighten the life out of my hens!
Graham has found a rat run in the dyke and has put poisen down.He has been slashing and digging all day with his new sickle which he had sent from Sheffield. The postman actually allowed us to have it and didn't steal it as is usual with parcels that get sent to us.
today I have made some Tomato chow chow which is a kind of pickle done in the slow cooker. Very nice.
Thats all for now. sheila x
