Fledged

Wednesday was mostly cloudy and breezy at times.

 I visited the plot to water the tomatoes and to check if the recent strong winds had done any major damage. I thought the tomato plants would be dry as the plot greenhouse only has an automated vent and can get very warm in the sunshine but they were still moist which was a surprise.
Wind damaged carrot protection
The recent strong winds had removed the environmesh cover from the carrots and just a few bricks had probably stopped it blowing away all together. The mesh wasn't damaged and was soon put back in place. Just hope the carrot flies haven't had chance to invade our carrots.

Blue tits ready to leave nest 
Our three surviving blue tits fledged early this morning. All the details are on our video which can be found from the link at the top of this page.
