Going....
Thought I'd leave you with a sound image- the chattering of swallows, iconic calls of cuckoo and curlew, mournful honking of the geese - and the constant buzzing of bumble bees!
Going....
A visual inage; the fruit trees are in blossom, the sun is shining, the hills are green with new grass, polka dotted with sheep and lambs. A kite soars past on the thermal currents, a pair of courting buzzards put on an aerial display. A heron lazily flaps up from the lake.
Gone.

Just a quick reminder; this page will close at the end of April.
I am still easily contactable! [email protected], www.pippasplants.com, on Signal and Whatsapp ( whatsapp will be phased out over a longer period!)

I'm now on Signal - though not sure how to contact anyone yet!!! Geesh. It's hard being an old lady in this techno age - does anyone else remember their school state-of-the-art 'language lab'? Complete with headphones and large tape reels which frequently broke or unravelled?
And it was Years later that they came up with a Mobile Phone!! Yes, size of a housebrick and almost as heavy. If you were out, well you were out of communication too! And so on....

Anyway. Woke to the honking of geese flying to and from the lake, then the chitter chatter of the first swallows, and the haunting calls of 2 curlews feeding in the field next to Tanyfron.
Can't complain eh?!

The swallows are back! And a pair of curlews calling. 🥰

I will be leaving Facebook and WhatsApp by the end of April. If you would like to stay in touch, please make sure you have my email address and mobile number!
I will post again when connected to Signal, which should be more secure. ( Unless you're an American defense bloke who randomly adds others to the chat...)

No pics, no fun stuff... broken ankle, so nothing is happening - at least, I am doing nothing! Wonderful friends are helping out in every way- I can't thank you all enough! X

Fantastic views yesterday morning!

Alder tree; usually has this pyramid shape- and the catkins are amazing when you look closely!

Probably enough frogs-to-be? The heron has been busy gobbling up the annual delicacy - it doesn't show, so I think there's plenty!
