Through the woods

I did drag my fiance out the other day, just haven't put the pictures up here yet. We didn't find anything special, though we did hear a green woodpecker who refused to show his face. Heard the usual pheasants and song birds. Here are a few pictures of the woods:

Still looking very bare and scraggy after the hard winter we've had,

We did make a few friends though. Out in a field on Breck's Lane, after you find your way out of the woods, are a few horses. Well, I love horses, and the fact that one was a foal just made me all the more eager to stroke them:

Garden Visitors

Haven't been out and about much since I lost my dog :-( But the wildlife has been coming to me. Here are a few of the recent visitors to my garden:

He really wants those peanuts! Might have to invest in a squirrel feeder.

Sorry about the poor-quality photos. They were taken through my bedroom window.

Will definitely have to go to the woods tomorrow, if the weather is good. I'll drag my fiance and his camera with me so we might have a few decent photos between us :-)
