Just for a change, here's a bit of an update on wildlife in the garden. These first few pics are of little critters, so you might need to double click on the photo to see what's there!

| Bank voles are always here. There are lots of signs of them, but we rarely see them. Back in early July we saw two in one day. This one spent a long time shuffling about on the back lawn after having a drink out of the pond |
 |
| We've had a really dry time up here, and the level in the pond has been lower than ever. I gave up topping it up as we were nearly out of water in the barrels. So the first few days of August have provided much needed rain. The frogs were hopping for joy when it started. |

| Camouflage |
 |
| One of our infrequent visitors at this time of year - Grey Wagtail |
 |
| The Partridge Family. Mum and Dad have appeared in the last few days accompanied by one teenager and three youngsters |
 |
| Mum and Dad and two youngsters here (and a Chaffinch) |
 |
| One parent and one youngster. I have been unable to get all six of them in one picture yet, the are really shy at the moment. |
