              Magnolias are wonderful right now, the best I've ever seen them. They like a hard winter it seems :)

                      I find if you look up your account online towards the end of each month it helps, I'm sure they know if you are watching your account or just not really that bothered.

                              Finding a couple of young slow worms under the sheeting on a compost heap, while listening to a woodpecker and keeping an eye on a robin all in the sunshine.

                                Finding some tubers of Gloriosa that had been left in pots outside all winter. They're not just OK, they're starting to sprout :hapfeet:
                                The three new chickens put themselves to bed last night, after just one previous attempt. That's a record, although they're usually quite quick on the uptake. All three are laying mini-eggs for Easter :)
