| Azaleas in full bloom... |
I love the beginning of May - it's the time when both of our pink azaleas are normally in full bloom. Don't they look stunning? The photo doesn't even do it justice!
Just as I was looking out earlier today, a duck landed in our pond, had a little (very little) swim and then took off again. How on earth he managed to spot our little pond from up in the air is beyond me :-) Unfortunately, I only managed to take a quick snap through the closed door but at least I got a picture!

| A visitor to the pond... |
There seems to be lots happening in the garden! Only yesterday did I notice one of the birds - a great tit - investigating our dog's tennis ball on the path and then picking off fibers which were no doubt destined to make the nest more comfortable for this year's offspring. Again, I was amazed how this little creature realised that this strange object would be a good supplier of bedding but I guess nature never ceases to amaze :-). I managed to shoot a little film but will have to tidy it up a bit to zoom in a more, so footage to follow...
