We also have regular visits now from a family of Greater Spotted woodpeckers who have great enthusiasm for peanuts - and a squirrel one day tried to reach the feeder hanging outside the kitchen window

A very attractive young rabbit provided a diversion during the breakfast washing up the other morning, dashing about the yard with great interest in everything - Chief Washer Up had to stop work and get out the camera!

Update on the youngsters:

Cadog is now 4 weeks old, quietly confident and sure of himself - and now able to eat out of his mother's feed dish as well as grazing very competently.

Cadno at 2yrs old is doing nothing much except eat and grow, but isn't he handsome?!

Rachel now 3yrs old and taller than her mother is very beautiful and developing into an interesting character (this can be interpreted in different ways depending on her behaviour!).

Lastly Bella is home for a short break from schooling, she has proved to be quite a challenging pupil, but progress is being made and hopefully she will start some roadwork soon.
