Not long seen my first swallow of the season over the village. whilst out for my daily walk.

Plant is now 5ft 2ins tall. The buds are showing signs of colour. Forecast for rain tonight here, so could grow a wee bit faster. The ground has dried up quite a bit. Just been out and loosened the soil around the plants, so if it does rain will penetrate the soil better.

Perhaps the hedgehogs don't like the smell of mice. But having said that, the hedgehogs go into the feeder on top of the steps. Although I have never seen a mouse go in the feeder there.

I agree placi. Now I wonder if that is why the hedgehogs don't eat the food in there. Maybe smell the mouse.

Front door mousey.

Thank you placi. I think it may be a youngster, and the first time I have seen it. I usually get a bigger one there each night. I put peanut granules out for it.

One of my mice.

In the lanes as well, not a garden.

Seen another peacock today and a comma.

Just been out with the tape measure. Is now 4ft 3ins tall.
