And congrats on all the baby birds, we didn't have any otherselves this year but that's ok, we have loads of birds coming for dinner, I think the nests must be in the mature garden behind us. Love Mrs Bullfinch's photo :)<br />Count the birds that make up a flock - that's torture!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01475182740888543862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-31448317789740138942011-06-13T14:04:49.765+00:002011-06-13T14:04:49.765+00:00We've planted one batch of sweet corn Diana.

Have you manage to transplant your sweet corn yet at your allotment? Its good that you have some rain will lessen the task of watering.Malay-Kadazan girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09692400837667241873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-45036341133399818602011-06-13T12:56:47.850+00:002011-06-13T12:56:47.850+00:00Just glad we haven't any fruit trees in bud, J...Just glad we haven't any fruit trees in bud, Jo as bullfinches can devastate them - just as long as they don't follow us to the plot.<br /><br />That tends to happen with us Mark, our pond was going to be just a small water feature and ended up 5 feet deep! We have had one baby starling in the garden - we don't seem to get many now they can't nest under the eaves/ They using to nest in the loft and clump about wearing hobnailed boots!Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-31157732415982335642011-06-13T12:11:42.575+00:002011-06-13T12:11:42.575+00:00I think your plan is experiencing the "Domino...I think your plan is experiencing the "Domino effect"... It's funny how one thing leads to another. Looking forward to when our baby Starlings leave their nest (which is far too close to our bedroom window for my liking). They are noisy blighters, especially at four a.m. !Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33294007.post-19373413668333934522011-06-13T10:55:11.650+00:002011-06-13T10:55:11.650+00:00You've made a great start with all of this yea...You've made a great start with all of this year's projects. Your new bed will look lovely once everything's settled in and got established. We spent yesterday tidying the garden up again and sorting out the greenhouse, intending to go to the allotment in the afternoon but then the rain came so that's had to be put on hold. I've loads of things waiting to be planted out. My mum and dad get bullfinches in their garden, they're such colourful birds, especially the male.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.com
