I got this award from Wsprsweetly of Cottages today! Thanks Mona!

Despite the fact that it has been cloudy all day we reached a tempearture of 22,5C (72F) today. Can´t say that it felt like that but my thermometer says it was so. My dogs spent the day at home because I had to use the big diesel forklift today. Hector, the intelligent one, doesn´t like that one because It sounds to much. He accepts it when he sees me driving it, but I can see how he wants to walk away and here it because he “talks” all the time when I drive it.

Yet another wonderful sunrise this morning.

The pheasant family (three hens and one rooster plus a lot of chickens) spent the day just beside the factory in an old orchard we have there. Every time I tried to get a picture of it with my mobile phone camera the rooster ran away sounding much like a horn on a very old car :-), next weekend I´ll bring the real camera. I stood slightly hidden when I tried to take the picture when I realised that a big hare sat just next to me!! I had my protective overall on and smelled mostly paint, so I don´t think it understood that I was a human. When it did it was gone in a second :-)

The Clematis tangutica has already flower buds, that is early even for that one.

There was a gentle drizzle when we took our walk this afternoon. In spring I don´t mind when it rains while walking with my dogs. The rain cleans out all durt and afterwards its smell so fresh. In autumn or winter, when it rains, I don´t take walks if possible, then I do mind the bloody rain :-)

A piece of mywoodland. As You can see there´s a lot of old leafs left on the ground. I never take away them, thats the best nutition the plants can get. What grows here is easy plants. The only thing I do is to get rid of grass and weeds now and again.

I got a pleasant surprise when I looked into the blog “Wsprsweetly of Cottages”, Mona has given me an award!
Now I´m supposed to give it to fifteen other blogs, preferably some new ones and link to them here. I´m a bit lazy and don´t think I know any new blogs so I´ll make it easy for me. I´m giving it to everybody on my bloglistlinks on the right top of my blog :-) Then I don´t have to link an extra time :-) Thank You Mona!

This is a plant You from eastern USA may knoe. Trillium erectum. This is what every one interested in gardening wants in their garden over here. Mine thrives and self sows gently all over the woodland.

Now it´s time for a cup of tea and to read all my favourite blogs!
Have a great day now!

A close relative (Anemone ranunculoides) to the Wood anemone. Does not relly live wild where I live, but these seemes to enjoy life. Sometimes they cross breeds (is it right to say so?) with the Wood anenome and then sulphur yellow flowers will appere.
