Hornets at Yew Court
My partner Richard has yet again taken some fantastic photos, this time of a hornet which landed on the rose bush.

This Summer Has Been a Wash Out
This summer has been a wash out at Yew Court. What is happening to the weather lately? A few odd days of sunshine, then rain, then wind.
And where have all the birds disappeared to? There have been hardly any birds around Yew Court lately, but there has been too many pesky cats. At one time there would be sight of an odd cat here and there but just recently there has been too many cats around. It seems that a neighbour's cat has had kittens and they seemed to be keeping all the kittens instead of giving them away. How irresponsible, I mean for godness sake how many cats does one family need? Surely one or two is quite enough for anyone. Some people are just plain stupid. Please dont get me wrong, I'm no cat hater, I used to have 2 cats myself at one time but at Yew Court there is no place for cats. Yew Court is a sanctury for birds and all wild life.
We have seen some beautiful birds around Yew Court and to find cats lurking in our garden waiting to pounce on the birds is very upsetting!

Summer is coming?
Another sunny day at Yew Court. Is summer finally on its way? The beech trees are still quite bare but there are finally new leaves growing. This time last year they were thick with leaves and screened the back of the garden completely and we were sunbathing on the grass!

Wednesday
Today at Yew Court it has been raining. The birds are signing as usual but I will have to keep my eyes open for that pesky cat.
A Blue Jay landed in the garden. They are quite rare and Richard was quick enough to make a short video before the bird flew away.
