Chelmer's Nature Notes Returns

I was very grateful to my friend Gardening Bear Tommy who called me out into the garden to show me what he'd discovered while mowing the lawn last weekend. We had a beautiful pair of baby robins waiting under our fushia bush for their parents to come and feed them.

One was bit shy and hopped away when I got my camera out, but the other was happy to be in my picture with me (look right) ...


... and as he got used to me, he, or it might have been she, was willing to let me get a bit closer and do a close quarters nature study ...


I was both fascinated and enchanted by these delightful youngsters and hope they will stay safe and grow up to be big and strong.

Love from Chelmer xxx

Rupert and Raj have been watching a Daddy blackbird feeding his two offspring, who are about the same size as him. All three of them were tucking into a new fat block.
