Today, and yesterday (as well as last week), I watched the birdies in the garden. I counted them, and had 12 house sparrows, 12 starlings, 2 blue tits, 2 chaffinches, 2 blackbirds, 1 great tit, 2 robins, 1 bullfinch, 1 pied wagtail and 1 dunnock. Previous visitors to the garden over the last month have included a fieldfare, carrion crow, magpie and a seagull (though more seagulls like to watch the world go by while sitting on the roof of the house).
On Wednesday, onions started to germinate. Today, 75% have germinated. I have 4 cauliflower seedlings (100%).
