Whahaha naughty Opo.Well today was National Pet day. Opo woke up at 9.30 grazed for a hr. Then ate some food I gave him. Then basked for a hr and about 1 pm went to bed. Came out and basked for a hr. Then went back to bed. Never came out again. I didn't even soak him. I guess he thought National Pet day was a day to be lazy. Not a day to spend time with me

Good Friday Everyone.
It is overcast this morning. And we are expecting rain tomorrow. Only 40% but we will take what we can get. You know that it is winter when it is dark when you get up for work and dark when you get home. We are almost there. It is dark when I get up now but not quite dark yet when I get home. But at least with winter we can expect some rain, so we are happy to welcome winter. Hope everyone has a fantastic Friday.

Carol, you were in the CDR at the time. I didn't know if you felt up to helping out. I wanted to tap in to your varied experiences, but instead let you be. I hope I did right by you.

Linda, I was so glad to see you pop on last night/morning for you. Everyone else had gone to bed. It was downright lonely in here. I think I was the last one to burn the midnight oil.

It's the sound while you can't rip your eyes away from the branch. The preparation, the grind, the complete destruction...it leaves you breathless with anticipation!
It's so much fun with the shredder! Just take care. That "just one more branch" can lead to a very small tree indeed!

Toetoises, rather like cats, do what suits them when it suits them and the staff just have to go along with it.
We seem to work in shifts on TFO. It is really noticeable to me as the various US time zones wake up (from lunchtime onward from my point of view) with a few night owls being around as I get up. I guess those in the USA notice those of us East of the Atlantic disappearing as the day progresses, but perhaps there are fewer of us making it less noticeable.

Good mornooning everyone. It’s Friday already. The sun is out, but it’s cold - just 3C/37F!
Mrs B seems to have had a change of heart and given us a better view this morning
This nest is way deeper than last year’s. I think we have a much more experienced Mum in charge.

It’s a “Bluet it” (Cyanistes caeruleus )
You have to remove the space between the two words yourself.... TFO’s swear filter thinks I am being rude if I type it all as one word!
We do, still, have a challenge for tenancy though.
This bird caused great upset for about 15 minutes just now, poking its head in the nest box hole repeatedly.
Meanwhile Mrs B was lunging and shouting her objections

There must be a housing shortage, time to build some affordable homes!!!
