The Best Duck. I will not be taking questions at this time #birds

The best looking duck with rust coloured body, white cheek, black cap and an oversized bright blue bill. It is the best duck. It is the ruddy duck.

I've just sent my old best friend from school Sendak's Higglety Pigglety Pop! It was all I desired for Christmas when I was 10 and I still love it

How lovely! Are you buying the same titles? We bought Richard Scarry for our great grandson because we both had him when we were little. It's a lovely thing to do 😊

I had big plans to buy 500g of peas but the seller announced 2 kilos for 4 euros so now I have 2 kilos.

As a child I didn't have many Ladybird books, but those I did have, I still remember fondly (and I think I've probably still got most of them).
One of them is pictured below, and I still remember it well ❤️

Behold! The hens are sorting the eggs on their own!!

A photograph of a playing box in which the green eggs on the left side and the brown eggs are on the right side. I did not sort these. The hens did.

The shadows are getting longer and longer. The sun highlights the limestone so nicely at this time of year.

A crow standing on a bench with a beak stuffed full of peanuts. It probably thinks that there's room for one more
