Re: Diary of a lazy gardener

Hi Pat

He He moles have no respect do they? All our hard work in the garden and they don't care one bit. Someone told me to put mothballs or old perfume on a tissue down the holes to drive them away, I know there are some really nasty methods of evicting them but I can't bring myself to do these things, just too squeemish I suppose.

Sounds like you had a wonderful morning too, doesn't it just make you feel good.

Today is very quiet, intermittent sunshine but fairly mild.

I noticed our friend Mr Pheasant is back, he gathers dropped seed around the bird-table; he returns every year and brings his lady friends and chicks in the breeding season. It's fun to watch him call to them and stamp proudly and herd them towards it when he's found food, you'd think he put the seed out himself

I have some very poor photos of them all taken on a mobile phone and digital camera, I must see about uploading some. To be truthful I'm quite ashamed of them after seeing the quality of the pictures on this site, people are very patient and talented.
