Saturday

 Just after sunrise this morning
They're a hardy bunch these gig rowers ! 
Some nice blue sky 
But rather grey around the edges
Sadly our day suddenly went downhill when I noticed that Tilly's eye with the cataract  was looking rather red and swollen and shortly afterwards she failed to make it to the garden before having an accident - so off to the Vets we went. She has an ulcerated eye and bladder infection - something she's rather prone to. So we have eye cream and tablets and she seems fine
I walked Wooster up to Ednovean and onwards to the Farm Shop on the Helston Road for a loaf as Jim's struggling with his digestion and we thought different bread might help 
Up at Ednovean Farm it's not so much hedgehogs under the bonfire you have to worry about, but Spud Cat on the fire 


Rather an odd light 

We managed to disturb this Common Buzzard that had been down on the field
Looking through the wires 
Sadly as we walked on we disturbed a flock of Lapwings 
Bet the flock of Finches love this field of Teasels 
We turned around and headed back 
Wooster doing OK on his own 
Buzzard was still there 
Cheeky peek through the gates of Ednovean House 
Took the rest as we walked along to Trebarvah 
Wolf Rock in the orange glow again 



I was really hoping that the Starlings would fly lower down 
They were all over Perranuthnoe again 

That was it - not the day I was expecting, but Tilly seems OK the the tablets will do the trick

      Love the Charm of Goldfinches - wonder if it still applies when it's a mixed flock which is what we get in the Winter. Many of the Starlings stayed the night in the trees at the front and back of the house - got up early for Tilly and there was the noise of them just waking up ! Bit wet here this morning - just a line of rain that should pass. Sue
