April in Pictures

Who can believe it’s almost the end of April? I’m sure that as I grow older the days pass more quickly. This month has mostly been about crochet, lots of gorgeous commissions, plenty of granny squares and fresh flowers from the garden. The greenhouse is stuffed full of seedlings and I’m pretty sure that next month’s “Month in Pictures” will mostly reflect the hours I will be spending in the garden (a note of optimism there for sunny weather!

What a difference a year makes! Took this shot from my office window this morning - still plenty to do - but we have a garden of sorts! This week we've eaten home grown onions, garlic, peas and potatoes. Mr T finished the second hand greenhouse The cut flower patch is fillled with pollinators - hoverflies, bees - bumble, honey and solitary - including a leaf cutter bee! Moths, butterflies and plenty of slugs. We've made wildlife corridoors along the edges which are used by the wren and the blackbirds, the grass is full of clover, vetch and a tiny patch of birds foot trefoil (amazing what moves in when you don't mow so often!). We regularly spot woodpeckers, goldfinches and great tits on the bird feeders.There's a tiny pond filled with larvae - probably gnats - but hey all nature is welcome here! Thankyou @francestophill and @kategbradbury for all the inspirational and helpful posts and writing really useful books. Thankyou @genesishomesuk for building our new home and taking steps towards more sustainable homes for the future xxx

Misty morning by the lake, slipped into warm water and swam round the bend. 50 or maybe 60 Canada geese on the shoreline, dozens of their feathers floating on the water. A large fish brushed my leg - quite startling in the mist! One lone mallard - not impressed with the geese stealing her spot - or the two swans swimming over to see what all the commotion was.

I honestly don't think there is anything more fascinating than watching Angelica leaves emerge!

Worm snatcher!

Strange bird in the sky tonight!

My little patch of wild is filled with the strangest and most beautiful creatures! Snapped this while dead heading the poppies!
