COVID 19 Diary

Local wildlife sightings this morning:

On my way to the beach for my morning walk when a young roe buck leapt over the stone wall from the village play park on to the road just behind me, scaring the bejesus out of himself. And me.

‘Im indoors came across a family of wren fledglings fluttering about befuddledly on the mat in the hall having found their way in through the open back door. He gently ushered them outside again to their mum, who was chattering and scolding them from the garden wall.

Lunching in the garden and reading my paper when I was softly head butted by an inattentive and clumsy bumble bee who dropped briefly into my salad, sampled the vinaigrette dressing and then lazily lumbered off again with a tiny bit of rocket attached to its back leg.
