    A Red Squirrel ran across the road that I was walking on this morning . It climbed up a Horse Chessnut tree and was soon out of sight . I was out checking up on a Rowan tree , that was planted in memory of my late Mum . It has really grown in height , but all the berries are gone and the leaves ( that remain ) are all brown . It is Autumn for sure but the other day it was 15 degrees at 6.20 a.m. , very unusual for mid October in these parts .

    Just the usual a deer walking down the the road , strange thing it was fully grown but very skiterish'

    i dont know if the half wild cat was about ( who has adopted my garden ,, or me ) it shouldnt have affected the deer.

    * i love where i stay. The only thing i miss is getting a hedgehog to live in my garden, i must be using the wrong cat food, That is not a joke as hedgehogs love cat food. They have terrority of 13 gardens, so why does the wee * not come in to mine. The wee * walk up and down the road ,well run the can move pretty fast

    Just the deer back in my garden . Nobody believes me until they come down to mine when I say don't let the dogs out without checking for the deer. Funny thing is I have no apples on my apple tree this year don't know why, that is what they usually come in for at this time of year. Over the past 2 years the number of pheasants in my garden has increased from 2 to 12 the wee shaggers!,,,

    I was out for a walk this morning and I spotted two signs warning motorists of squirrels crossing the road . One sign seemed like a private sign , and the other was an official council road sign . Any moves to help the red squirrel population is good in my book .
