Fantastic March weather continues

Thursday saw the continuation of our spell of unbroken sunshine and warm temperatures continue. It will be a blow when it comes to an end. Frogs are back in our pond and there's already some frogspawn just waiting to be eaten by our fish.

I'm sure some of this frog spawn survives to go on and produce tadpoles and eventually frogs. I'll have to keep a check to see if I can follow developments.

In the greenhouse the first signs of swelling buds can just be seen on our grapevine. I'm amazed that these gnarled old branches carry on year after year producing an abundant crop of sweet white grapes.

We've also had more action in our nest box and I think we might be lucky enough to have a couple of blue tits taking up residence. check out the latest goings on by clicking on the nest box cam link on the side bar at the top of the blog.
