Its been rather dull this week. We woke up on Monday morning to find half the garden fence had blown away! They can't replace it until after Easter so the dogs have to be closely supervised in the garden. We have been out walking the dogs and did get a few photos but mostly the light was too bad. A visit to Eyeworth and Cadmans pond met with a joyful twittering from all the hungry birds and they gobbled up our goodies very quickly. All five mandarins are still around and we are hoping they will nest. Apparently they nest in holes in trees often several metres off the ground we will keep checking in to see if ducklings arrive. We had a quick trip up to Hatchetts pond but the carpark was closed for vegetation management!

looks like your having bad weather like us :( except ours is gale winds & a heat wave - wanna swap ;)
Well, it sounds like I'm lucky to have escaped bad weather. Glad you all are okay though. It seems like everybody has had some strange weather this winter, but it's gone all around me. Downtown Atlanta, GA had tornadoes last night. Very strange stuff.
Beautiful picture of the horse, Mary. Your visit to the pond sounds really nice. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the Mandarins nested there? I've never seen their young ones.
