Today has been a wonderful sunny and warm day, after the week of freezing and rainy weather we have experienced, the sun has been most welcome! I wandered around the garden and inside our home with my camera and have taken some photos to share here… I am enjoying visiting the links on Creative Friday, you are all so wonderful and thank you for the lovely birthday wishes for Jen’s 14th birthday on Thursday. Today her little bird flew away out of his cage, she has hand-reared him since he was a tiny little hatchling. It was a most traumatic time, but then she went outside and called to him, she had a bowl of his favourite food (bird nutritional cereal) in her hands and he flew down to her from the oak tree and sat on the bowl! His name is Doug, he has never known life out in the ‘wild’ and doesn’t know how to fend for himself, it is also freezing here at night, so we were all terribly concerned for this sweet little creature. We are so relieved he is back here, safe with us… Erin is down and out with flu at the moment, she has been drinking honey, lemon and ginger tea and taking her homoeopathic remedies, but I can see she feels flat… if anyone has any natural remedy suggestions that have helped to soothe flu symptoms, I would be most grateful to hear them:)
