Catching up

I think you will be giving up and not visiting any more, it's been so long since my last post. I just re read it and saw what I said about finishing the memory book that weekend. LOL, that was a joke - I spent 3 to 4 hours a day for the following 10 days before it was finished. It was worth it though - my parents are so thrilled with it. Today my sister visited and brought it with her so I could see the finished result (I'd had the book sent direct to Mum and Dad). It is lovely, good quality & beautifully finished.
I've had a few excursions now that Mary is back from Canada so at least I have some photos to post but have done very little to the robin. Now I have no reading glasses for a few days so cannot draw anyway. Our excursions include the usual walks, the local nature reserve, another nature reserve near Lymington and our big trip to London. I will save London for another post and just show you a few nature pics today. It was a thrill to see deer so close at Fritham, a Black tailed Godwit (and the Kingfisher again) at the reserve. We saw the heron at Eling and the little bird, which I am assure is a Wheatear, at Lymington.
