Recent wildlife....

This exquisite little slow worm was hiding under a pot until yesterday....

We often have visits from both green, and greater spotted woodpeckers in the garden....  we've been leaving dead wood on the trees, and on the ground to encourage insects to breed which attracts the birds.


Wild ducks seem to like the pond....

...and laid these eggs in the woods - sadly they didn't survive to hatch out.
