We have a lady pheasant (almost wrote "peasant"! ha ha not quite the same thing), that comes and eats the insects in our plot, apparently there was a male but he disappeared - how sad! probably eaten by now!

2012 - Snow in February, non-stop rain till July. Blight and rot are rife. Thieving voles cause strife. But first runner beans and lots of greens. Follow an English allotment in urban France:

We have a blackbird that sits in next door's tree - OK not strictly in our garden - but boy does he claim his territory! Every morning he is singing/shouting away from about 6am (well, that is when I register it...) and he just goes on and on!
I love it - far better than an alarm clock - but it makes me wonder just how much of their time is spent singing/shouting?
Hang on - he's started again... ;D

Well the nest is ready, but they gave up when the magpies came and ruined the eggs they laid. Still if the Pyracantha gets thicker over the year they will be back next year to give it another go.

Got them back now to put some tread on them
