"Climb every mountain...

...Ford every stream,
Follow every rainbow
'Til you find your dream seeds."

Dear Diary,

Rosie is channeling her inner Julie Andrews!  She looked so cute up on the big stone, well, big for her I guess.  The chipsters are very busy now to-ing and fro-ing from the seed bowls.  Spring stock-up has begun.  Never a day to waste in replenishing the larder for - cringe - next winter.  But that is a long way off and there is  lots of spring and summer ahead.

I saw my first bumble bee yesterday making a somewhat valiant effort of pollen collection from a not quite open bleeding heart plant.  My violets are just starting as well and Aunties' tree is just moments away from bursting into bloom.  The whole world seems to be trembling with joy!
