Spring watch!

The daffodils are nearly all in bloom now in front of the house which is one reason for the pic above but it also shows my first ever attempt at pointing stone work where all the previous filling had been completely eroded by the wind, it took me ages just to do the small area behind these flowers but it's turned out very well and at least there's no holes in that piece of wall now!
Also, at last, after being gifted a mini cctv camera from my youngest daughter and soon to be son-in-law for christmas, we've managed to set up the camera in the bird box next to the Roque Terrace gite. One of the suggestions was to cut a small window in the side of the box to allow more light on the subjects and as you can see below it's certainly worked as after only a few days blue tits have been visiting regularly and all is very clear to see, won't be long now until the building of nests start.
