Relaxing By Working

I find Gardening to be quite relaxing and have great pride in the work I have put into the external environment of my home. 

Robin....

This Little guy has been living within my neighbourhood for almost as long as I have.
He always appears whenever I do any kind of spade work to try and bag a few worms.
Quite confident around me and not at all shy.
We always try to put our food for him and his feathered friends particularly with the unpredictable weather we have had in 2018.  

Recycle....

We used to have a deck, but eventually the substructure gave way.
Instead of just dumping the wood we reclaimed as much as possible and built planters.
A little work can create a nice environment with no cost except a few screws and a tin of paint. 

​

Nasty Nip.... 

This little lady will give you a nasty nip. 
Steatoda nobilis is "Noble false widow", leave her alone and she will mind her own business.
​Native to the Canary Islands among other places and now invading our shores. 

Wonderful weather.... 

2018 has had some smashing days giving me ample opportunity to sit in my outside world.
Well worth the hard work that goes into it.
​I am very proud of the results. 

Pride.... 

​Gardening is a lost art that is rarely appreciated nowadays but can bring a great deal of satisfaction
