scales still say 204lb today, so it's not a blip, yay!
my goodness, wind and rain in ginormous amounts out there today!
yesterday whilst out in the garden, i thought i would take a sneaky peak at the birds nest that was in the traffic cone that stops our visitors driving on the soft verge at the entrance to our drive.
well, a few days ago it was full of tiney eggs, yesterday it was full of tiny baby birds, mouths wind open, but their mother was lying dead beside them!
so, after a phone call, we scooped up the whole nest, including the dead bird, and rushed them to a wildlife rescue centre. they fed them immediately, and said they looked healthy and strong and would likely survive.
seemingly the mother must have been very recently dead when i found them, as they would only survive a few hours without her.
so glad i looked!
