Winter It Is Past

I was starting to doubt whether it was or not - until we switched on the bird box camera at work today - and look what we found. We counted 7 little blue tit babies. There is another image here of the mum feeding them. Sorry about the quality!

Todays song is by Eddi Reader - this is from an album of Robert Burns tunes she did which is very very beautiful.


The winter it is past, and the summer comes at last,
And the small birds are singing in the trees
Now everything is glad, oh but I am very sad,
For my true love is parted from me


So being inspired by ArcLight+ - Ive decided to take part in a challenge called Musical May suggested by DEyre The idea is that you take a list of tunes on your ipod and use them as titles for blip photos for the month of May - so here goes!
