The First Day

Well, not much is happening today, the garden is covered in snow and ice. This means the grass is unlikely to grow very much and if it does I cannot see it, so I will not need to cut it. I cannot see the weeds in the border either so they can stay there until later.

The birds are busy in the trees and on the bird feeders. Currently on the feeders there are blue tits, great tits, long-tailed tits, marsh tits, robins, greenfinches, chaffinches  and goldfinches. There are thrushes, blackbirds and redwings currently stripping the Rowan tree of its berries. The male and female pheasants are feeding below the trees and occasionally flying onto the bird table. Also in the garden there are collared doves, magpies and pigeons. 


Currently there are no rabbits or deer present, sometimes we have Muntjack and Roe deer, usually they come to eat the vegetables, but because of the snow I doubt they can find them; I cannot find them either.
