Friday smile

 This is the rainbow that greeted me on Monday afternoon - it certainly made me smile!
I hope it does the same for you too.


Now, you may remember two weeks ago I had a cheeky pheasant peeking through my kitchen door.
Then last week she was sitting on my hedge peeping at me again.
Well look carefully below......

 This is what G found when he was raking leaves in our flower border beside the front drive.
A nest made of dry leaves with 5 beige eggs inside.
I think they must belong to the nosey pheasant.
They were cold so we assumed she had left them.

A few minutes later we saw Mr Pheasant proudly strutting across the lawn.

 And then after lunch G noticed the female was sitting on her nest!
Can you see her speckled feathers in the middle of this pic?

I shall be watching closely to see what happens.
I know they are silly birds and doubt the eggs will hatch - it's such an open "public" spot.
Watch this space.

I am sure Annie will have more smiles for you over on her blog today so pop over to "A stitch in time"
and join in the fun.

Thanks for calling.
