Going into Autumn

The last of my Summer visitors have gone home as we see the leaves turning into their wonderful Autumnal colours. This year the leaves are turning earlier  
.
It is time to start filling up the bird feeders again in the run up to Winter.The migrating birds have flown but many stay and brave our Winters so it is important  we look after our feathered friends and encourage them into our gardens.
Our problem is keeping the pigeons away so the smaller birds can feed. It was good to see the sunshine after two days of rain which the gardens needed. We see lots of Buzzards yesterday they were enjoying the sunshine gliding around on the thermals    
 
 Time to plant the bulbs for a colourful show come Spring. I spent yesterday splitting up the snowdrop those wonderful heralds of Spring . 
 
70th Wedding Anniversary Last week we visited a  couple celebrating their 70th Wedding Anniversary married in 1939. What an incredible achievement they still drive the car and welcome all visitors with a glass of wine each day.
