Autumn Berries

Autumn is so full of colour and lots of berries this year - a sign of another snowy winter??

Grass mix in the autumn

The grass margin plots - these plots promote spaces for beetles and invertebrates

Moles are busy

The moles are busy in the fields amidst the stubble!

Pest controllers having a debrief!

The cats have taken to meeting on the bonnet of a car for a quick debrief!

I loved these guys!

I could not resist these guys when I saw them on my travels in the Cotswolds - a mix of traditional breeds and full of individuality.  Suckler cows have such a strong mothering instinct and they are very protective. there was a strong wooden fence between me and their calves when I took the photos!

Phacelia plot

The previous photos have been of a mix of plants fodder radish, phacelia, and mustard (but only a small amount) - you cannot see the tritcale in the photographs but they contain this plant too to provide seeds for birds later in the season. This plot is just phacelia and it is vey busy.
