Speaking of birds, I've had robins investigating a grape vine wreath hanging by the back door. I can see it from my desk window. Yesterday it was two robins as though one told the other about and they both came to investigate, which they did one at a time. No sign of nest building so I guess it didn't meet specs.Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992626996077874832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787951981229151015.post-9577985483833273842022-05-28T11:04:18.801+01:002022-05-28T11:04:18.801+01:00That foxglove looks epic!

We have Blackbirds in the ivy hedge, House Martins (3 nests now), Swallows (2), and a tiny Blue Tit somehow manages to squish itself flat to get under the edge of one of the tiles on the roof. Isn't it lovely to see them?<br /><br />Five Windows sounds a good book.<br /><br />I have relict plantings coming up all over where I have ripped the ancient tattered membrane up in the garden. Lots of Foxgloves in the lavender bed - I gave about 25 baby ones to my friend Pam, who was delighted. I think it is the only wildflower she recognizes, bless her!Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.com
