GeraniumCat in the Garden: Time marches on
http://geraniumcat.blogspot.com/2011/08/time-marches-on.html
GeraniumCat in the Garden. Saturday, 6 August 2011. Two months since I've been here! Is wrong with them I can't imagine, except that it was cold and wet when they were planted. True, the strawberries have been tremendous, and the one cucumber was delicious. I don't mind that only two of the hens have been laying properly, because we still have more than enough eggs (who's got time to cook? Or just out-shriek the competition? One morning I woke about 5 because there was so much noise outside my window - i...

GeraniumCat in the Garden: January 2011
http://geraniumcat.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
GeraniumCat in the Garden. Saturday, 22 January 2011. I know not everyone takes pleasure in having a rookery next to their home, but I enjoy our neighbours most of the time, and often stop to watch them when I'm shutting up the chickens for the night. This is only a very small part of the flock that musters in waves in the pine trees before they all finally set off to spend the night in the woods below us. I do. Dissuade them from eating at the bird table, though, as they frighten away the smaller birds.

GeraniumCat in the Garden: December 2010
http://geraniumcat.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
GeraniumCat in the Garden. Wednesday, 8 December 2010. I wish I could have shared with you the spectacular sight today of two cock pheasants fighting in the snow! Now that I really want to photograph the pheasants before the snow disappears, the sun probably won't shine tomorrow. But for now, at any rate, I like this picture. Posted by Jodie Robson. Thursday, 2 December 2010. Like it), they have a generous sprinkle of dried mealworms. Oh, our post has just found its way here by tractor! Travel template&#...

GeraniumCat in the Garden: April 2011
http://geraniumcat.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
GeraniumCat in the Garden. Monday, 25 April 2011. A very young Scotch Dumpling, a cooking apple with glorious flowers. The fruit are less appealing to look at, being pale green and knobbly, but I like the pleasant apple froth it creates when cooked. Easter weekend was uneventful, which was nice, and we had some welcome rain on Saturday evening. Oh yes, and the swallows are back, they arrived on the 20th. Lovely to see them.

GeraniumCat in the Garden: May 2011

GeraniumCat in the Garden. Thursday, 26 May 2011. How such a tiny bundle of fluff could make such a noise I can't imagine, but the picture above does give some idea of the brilliance of his crest. In the past I've struggled to see these elusive creatures, which are more generally "sighted" by tracking their creaky tseeping cry (what Wikipedia calls "a subdued rambling sub-song" - love it!

Why Lime? | limewindow
https://limewindow.wordpress.com/about
On the gorgeousness of lime mortar and stone in Ireland. Lime mortar, traditionally used by our ancestors to bind stone to stone in the building of bridges, lighthouses, homes and monasteries, was suddenly displaced by the arrival of cement in the early 1900’s. On the face of it, cement had much to offer with its quickly hardening properties. Lime was cast aside. However Lime is flexible so reduces serious cracking in stone from expansion. We need to restore and preserve as a matter of urgency, using Lim...
