moments:6:an autumn walk

thank you so much for your thoughtful comments and emails over the last couple of days. It makes such a difference in the day to have these communications and messages in the inbox, it really brightens it and makes a positive connection. Hurrah!

I've enjoyed being able to get back into blogging just these past few days... and hope it may continue!
These are some 'moments' from a brief walk on Sunday just up the lane.

These hogweed heads remind me of the work of Angie Lewin - very popular at the moment. Speaking of hogs and hedges... we had a welcome visitor in the garden for a couple of weeks - a very large hedgehog! I enjoyed watching it snuffle around the lawn under the bird table for food, and even succumbed to buying it some hedgehog treats - which are supposedly good for their teeth. I watched as 'he' crunched away vigorously on them - they proved very popular. But since I put some out on Saturday night he hasn't returned. Perhaps he has moved on before hibernating, just gleaning in the local area. So if you see him with his red spotted hankie slung over his shoulder, full of hedgehog treats and brambles like this..

...send him my love!

What a lovely picture you paint with words of Mr Hodgie Pig!

I better not let my husband know there are such things as hedgehog treats or I shall be bankrupt!
We are slaves to our bird table....and 'our' birds are quite happy to use emotional blackmail if I am late in giving them breakfast.
We have bucked the trend for the decline in sparrow and starlings – they are such a delight to watch.

I am glad in one way that Angie Lewin has become so popular but part of me is sad that she isn’t ‘my’ secret anymore.
