Busy busy...

So after neglecting to do much work over the summer due to frequent trips to various locations (and another coming up) I am now getting stuck in. Rain has just stopped play so an ideal time to catch up.

On the farm; cropping potatoes and other veg (not so many, it is not a great place for vegetables as I have previously remarked).

Continuous strimming particularly around the trees.
Weeding and spraying so it looks a little less neglected than of late.
Ragwort spotting...as it still pops up.
Worming for them that need it.
Cutting rushes, moving rocks, repairing the chicken house. (OH)
Finding eggs as they started laying outside again while friends were farm sitting last week.
AND...best job of all, building a new wall!!!

In the wood; clearing the front edge in preparation for the hedge which will eventually be layered.
Bramble bashing.
Building a log cabin...well it is a log shelter for me to wee behind ready for when the leaves fall off the trees.
Ordering natural/native daffodils and bluebells and preparing for planting next month.

What a wonderful life it is...never bored except when it rains of course.
The photo is of Little Eagle when she was a chick. Nothing to do with the content but cute.
