The orchard is
just about to burst from bud to leaf especially the crab-apple and pear. The newly
planted hedge is in leaf too – the daffodils are scattered in the meadows and
hay field with Celandines and Primroses growing along-side the brook. Tadpoles
are now wriggling and swimming in the dew pond. The two usual Magpies are
getting ready to nest in the ancient Oak above the hen-house. Rabbits are
playing hide and seek in the fields and the Blue-Tits are twittering in the old
dead apple trees, busily taking little soft bedding including bits of Daisy’s
moulting fur that had blow around the garden and little shreds of sheep’s wool.
