We have a lot of wildlife surrounding our house and being on fat farmland between a quarry, the woods and the sea it means they are generally plump and beautifully glossy. Its not something I was brought up to enjoy, when wildlife is around you in abundance you learn if you don’t keep your house and yard in order Mother Nature will take it over pronto 😂 but I love seeing it and now enjoy it a lot. Since I started leaving sunflower seeds out this little fella has become quite friendly. This morning he took a few mouthfuls of seed and came over to the window to say

We have new lodgers, they've come in from the cold just for now, not stinky house mice but cute, tiny Wood Mice

Funny little fekers, I have a bow of decorative woodland stuff, pine cones, conkers etc and found one of the conkers on the conservatory floor with a tiny nibble mark on it, I placed it back up on the shelf in it's wicker basket, the next day it vanished

After that a "super ball" magically appeared from nowhere right where the mice live under the skirting board in the conservatory, we dont have any super balls so no idea how they got it in here, funny cutie fekers
They will leave of their own accord in the Spring

I'm looking at the nice mushroom and then I notice the Star Trek space alien plant off to the side....looks like it is going to attack the mushroom.... 🦠

ok, maybe one too many glasses of wine this evening......🙃😄
