On the way home from Devizes last night, we encountered 2 deer in the road. We stopped the car so as to not spook them too much and to enjoy their magnificence. They were just a few feet away, the closest I have ever been to deer. They looked at us for a while and then in a single leap over the hedgerow at the side of the road, were gone into the night. A magical end to the day.
Musing on gardening and life in the heart of rural Wiltshire. Well, erm Chippenham actually...

Hi, let's start a conversation - right here, right now! I love reading your comments and thoughts about my blog :)

My general policy re comments
I value genuine commenters for the conversation they bring. Those aiming to link back and give credence to commercial websites (thankfully rare) will be removed.
Blog posts are kept open for your Comments for as long as possible - for at least 3 months. I've reluctantly taken the decision if a post comes in for a sp@m attack after that time, I'll remove its Comments facility. I've found genuine comments are rarely left after 3 months, but dozens of sp@m comments are :( Removing these takes away the joy that a genuine comment might be left one day.
You take some great photos Michelle. I always treat myself to daffs too, I don't have any in the garden, I just have jonquils in pots. I love the colour yellow, the world would be a dreary place without it. x
ReplyDeleteI just started forcing some bulbs. It makes me so happy to watch things grow.
ReplyDeleteThanks both. Bulbs are so cheerful aren't they?
