All the ewes and lambs have settled in to a life of shorn fleeces.

I rescued a chaffinch. Not sure what’s wrong but it’s now got a fighting chance to recover deep in a bramble patch

Single lambs have been let out into a pretty secure, from foxes, high walled paddock. A ewe with a single lamb has at least 85% better ability to keep her lamb safe from fox predation. Twins are being kept inside shed as better security, till they’re more mature.

This is what I mean by peek snowdrop display. It’s when both the early and later snowdrops are out at the same time. It’s still spectacular as the earlies are looking fabulous

@Channel4news reports on Putin’s weakening grip on power as Ukraine hits Russia deep in its own territory. Imagine the hold that Putin would have had over Nathan Gill if our security services hadn’t taken him out. Relax - he’s gone. The question is - how credible is it that he was the only one?
