BIRD BATH HELPER


BIRD BATH HELPER

In winter, Conker carries his duck watering can to help me keep the bird baths free of ice, and full of fresh water. :o)

What a lovely winter garden photo with the evergreens bird bath and conker.gardens can look so miserable in winter.not this one though :-)

That's right Surreylad :o)

Thanks Annella and Suey ...
I've worked hard to include a lot of winter interest plants and evergreens into my gardens...

In winter I'm mostly an indoor gardener ...
... in other words, I like to look at my gardens through my windows and plan the work I'll do in the warmer weather ! :o) x

Thanks Severnside...
My world is one where my gnomes queue patiently for the garden loo (maybe that blog was before your time)

... and where everyone gets top marks for every quiz, and all my pets have permanent good intentions ;o)
