Hi Woofers!
Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!
It has been rather sunny today, not warm but just mild. At lunchtime we could see all the way over to Southend and the Kebab Shops, but as the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, we couldn't sniff them!
We met up with a couple of poodle types who were getting nibbles as treats and on top of that a passing Spaniel got some as well.
I didn't bother, I mean, taking food from strange Two Legs is asking for trouble!
The tide was out but I don't think I would have gone in for a swim anyway, too many birdies’ flying about.
I spy with my little eye, something beginning with K!
The council have been out with the mowing machines and reduced the grass and other stuff right down to the ground. They have chopped down the brambles as well and today, for the first time ever, I trod on one as I went down the hill.
I did a yelp and hobbled along on three legs going Ouch, ouch, Ouch.
OTL spotted me limping, picked me up and plonked me on the bench top. Then he lifted my paw up and felt all around the pad until he found the thorny spike and pulled it out.
Then, just to make sure, he checked my other paws for sharp thorns. Thankfully there were no others!
Many years ago Holly was out with us and she got a thorn in her paw and OTL got that one out as well.
Clever OTL!
That's it, now can you check the rest?
A few weeks ago, OTL took a picture of a butterfly he thought was a Wood Tiger but Fred, he looks after the woods at Grain, he reckons it is a Jersey Tiger Moth! Even with that information and looking at the Collins Insect Guide OTL is still confused!
I think he should go back to pulling thorns, he's better doing that!
See you tomorrow.
Luv,
Daisy, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
