No Devo and a Manky Fox.

Hello Woofers,

Daisy here.

OTL changed over cameras this morning, put the Macro Lens on it hand headed off to photograph insects and creepy stuff.

All he managed was a flower!

 That's it, just one flower!

 I had a sniff around and thought I could sniff Devo but decided it was from a couple of days ago!

Maybe he was here yesterday or even the day before.

 The wind was high so it was difficult to tell so maybe if I sat around and waited he may turn up.

So, I sat down and waited to see if he would come running around the corner. OTL wasn't too pleased to have to sit and wait with me and he started making loud 'Come Here' types of noise, I ignored him of course!

I thought I could hear woofing in the distance but it turned out to be one of those ball chasing woofers!

 Is it?

In the end I had to give up and off we went, as quickly as possible 'cos the wind was getting up and I didn't want to hang about.

On the way back home, we saw a sorry looking fox sniffing around the cars in the village. I must admit, it looked a right mess and we were unsure if it was suffering from a case of mange or was in need of a good meal!

OTL stopped the car to see what it was doing.

Well, it looks young and loosing it's fur!

No food there and the bins aren't out today!

It crossed the road and headed off towards the farm entrance, maybe there will be something to eat in there.

Well, he certainly looks young and underfed, let’s hope he survives. What he needs is a good rabbit pie!

Back home we found just one moth in the trap, a Treble Lines, not the most exciting but at least there are none in Scotland!

See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy.

Where's my Chicken?

 Hello Woofers.

Daisy here!

OK, first things first, sorry I missed yesterdays blog, but I have a good excuse!

When TM got back from her day at the village hall she offered OTL a Kebab from the local shop.

Well, I just couldn't resist that and spent a long time robbing OTL of what I could get from the Kebab box!

Yesterday we noticed that there was a scaffold tower erected up the side of the church, so that means there are plan to renstall the Chicken on top of the tower!

It won't be long before the Chicken is back!

There was just one butterfly we saw, a common butterfly called a Speckled Wood and he wouldn't open his wings for us!


Go on, Gissa flash!

  Today was a very mist morning but we saw the gang ahead of us and so, we joined in the game of chase the ball. Well, they played chase while I followed on behind!

When it came to nibble time, we all lined up and I was offered the first nibble but to be honest, I don't take nibbles from anyone other than OTL or TM, so, I turned my nose up when it came to me

 
  I think I'll pass on this one thanks!

  Not that it worried the gang and pretty soon they were all begging for a nobble!

 
 

Bribery and corruption!

Out to sea it was so misty that the fog horns were blasting away, even though you couldn't see anything!

Is there anyone there?

It was best staying away from the sea so we stayed in the forest, it wasn't so windy there!

Oxide Daisy?

Looking down the forest path makes an interesting view.


Back home we investigated the moth trap but there was nothing to show for a night’s worth of electricity!

We will try again and see if we get more than mosquitos!

Now, yesterday I packed them both off to get a Covid jab and other than the snivelling that OTL always does, it went off well, right up to the point when the nurse stuck a small plaster on OTL's arm to stop the blood pouring down his arm.

Not that he noticed it until late last night when, after a wee, he happened to look in the mirror to see a discoloured patch on his arm. Oh, Gawd quoth OTL what is this on my arm and off he went down stairs to show TM, 'Look' he said, my arm has all gone funny looking and looks like it's going to fall off!

TM took one look and ripped off the plaster.

'There' she said, 'It's a Plaster'

OTL felt a right plonker!

That's the trouble with OTL, a real drama queen!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy!
