Journal Cheeky Grey Squirrel – The Brambles Journal

7th October 2016 Natasha 2Comment

Cheeky Grey Squirrel Hi :) As September came to a close I spotted a cheeky grey squirrel tucking into the sunflower seeds. I’ve had this feeder since the summer and it didn’t take them long to work out the best ways of getting the seed from it! I don’t think the greenfinches are overly impressed by them, they don’t get in the queue and wait their turn! Out of all the birds the greenfinches use it most. Although the collard doves often manage to use it too. Sometimes a pair of them will be on it together! It’s a short…

Journal September In The Garden – The Brambles Journal

September in the Garden Hi :) As September in the Garden continues, the flowers are still flowering and the insects still visit. However, these are both getting less in number. The leaves are dropping, but this has yet to pick up its pace. It was great to have some perfect weather for getting out in the garden to start the tidy up before the winter. Still a bit to do, but it’s looking so much tidier already. I finally got around to catching up from the week before the one just ended. Too much time spent in the garden rather…

Hi :) It’s a short one today, actually it’s an extra from the week before as I’ve not been around much this week. But you’ll see it’s exciting. I saw a badger in the garden, which is brilliant!!! It’s been a really long time since I last saw one. Loved watching it have a nose around, in a chilled out way :) To view this journal page larger, click on the image to open in Flickr.

Journal Delicate Dandelion – The Brambles Journal

Delicate Dandelion Hello :) This week I came across a dandelion, which looked so beautiful and delicate, I just had to go grab my camera and take a picture. There had just been a few spots of rain and these glistened on it, giving it an even more magical feel. Even as the flowers go over they still look beautiful. The garden is getting lots of little bird visitors at the moment. There are loads of greenfinches, and some goldfinches even turned up too this week! They all love the sunflower seeds and every time I look out at the moment there…

Journal All Change – The Brambles Journal

4th September 2016 Natasha 6Comment

All Change Hi :) It’s all change this week as it has felt partly like summer and partly like autumn. Depending on what calendar is used autumn has started, or hasn’t quite yet started! The meteorological calendar has autumn beginning at the start of September and the astronomical calendar on the 22nd September. I’ve started to notice a change already. While I was gardening last weekend the leaves of the silver birch were sporadically falling. This fall has continued and the leaves are more noticeably starting to change colour. The mornings have also started to have a slight chill to them, even on…
