We usually get the 9am train from Sand lake road, never come across noisy "snowbirds" perhaps it is too early for them! we then catch the 2pm train back., It gives us about 4hrs to wander round.

When my old neighbour was still alive he never did hanging baskets or put summer bedding out until May, he used to do everything from seed in his greenhouse. The first year I moved in and put hanging baskets up in April he told me to put them in the lean too everynight or I would lose them to frost. I forgot one night and we had frost 🙁

I have no plants although I can grow weeds fairly well. Actually I always think it's funny how weeds will grow when everything else is dying off.
I don't go caravanning or camping in a tent - we do like our cottage holidays in the UK though. However, I do have a robins nest in my garden waste bin! DH found it when he opened the lid to see if he could squish the contents to make space for the latest lot of grass cuttings. Not sure who was more startled, him or the robin! Hubby has now become very protective and has gone into full on baby daddy mode!

That is adorable, we have a couple of robins keep sitting on our fence so must have a nest in one of the neighbours gardens

Oh these are so sweet, I do hope you manage to see them hatch and fledge. We get lots of baby birds on our feeders in the summer and saw blackbirds fledge from our shed one year, it was lovely
I completely agree about weeds. We grow them very successfully, if my seeds don’t grow I will post photos of my weeds here instead 😂 |

Excited about Disney
|
I have planted some seeds yesterday but not into pots, straight into the flower beds. I don’t know much about gardening but I’m giving it a go. I’m hoping we don’t get any frost and I will need to give them a water as we haven’t had any rain yet. Fingers crossed I get some little plants coming through.

How lovely to see the eggs. They look very cosy in there.
We’d have had some different birds in the garden this week. We often have magpies and pigeons but these looked like a larger version of a - zut what are they called! The birds that eat the sugar liquid from a container! Humming bird ! No real idea what they are but they look lovely. We have also had quite a few smaller birds of prey circling over the fields opposite! Make a change from the very big birds (aka as planes) in the sky! Has anyone else seen any new wildlife in their gardens? Edited at 06:43 PM. |

For anybody planting their seeds straight into the ground, try covering them with a plastic pop bottle, cut the bottom off, throw the lid away.
Your plants have their own little greenhouse 👍🏻 |
