It's all go here

Well, it's not really. It's been raining all week so the flora has been shooting up and bursting out but it's been too wet to get out and enjoy it. And as for the fauna, it's just been keeping it's head down most of the time, trying to stay dry.

As I've said before, I like woodpigeons. Useless woodpigeon fact - they slough off the lining of their crop to form 'milk' that they feed to their young.

Oh, what a nice fat pigeon - they make such a bustle in the trees, like fat ladies barging through a market!I'm a bit squeamish about the crop sloughing ...but there is a very comforting feel to their crooning, on a hot summer evening. Reminds me of the end of cricket games.
