Gap Year

It's been about a year since I last posted anything due to a number of things going on that sort of took my eye off the ball, so to speak. Ignore the date of this post - I've just edited an old one to get the sequence correct.

But now we're back, raring to go, and even grumpier than usual. Beware !

Vote Saxon

You know it makes sense !!!

Found this flat out on the ground near the kitchen, so picked it up and put it on the summer house roof. Good job I wore gloves as the claws are long and sharp.

It's a male and looked like an adult. We think it was involved in a territorial dispute with another male and lost.

Eventually it disappeared - never found the body so assume it was OK - and there are definitely still two pairs around plus some youngsters.
