Orchids

I spied the first wild orchids of the year this morning.  Not having worked out how to make a collage, the other one is in extras!  While walking along the old road I also found several egg shells, one still with part of its contents.  The hooded crows are fiends!  There are a lot of them about and no bird's nest is safe from them.

Painting H's goat shelter this afternoon, using bituminous paint,  let down with a bit of turps.  A nice messy job!  Followed it up with a gentle ride out, me on new horse Jasmine.  She's a bit nervous and tense, but we managed fine, although we did turn back when we saw a mother, push chair and small child on a bike on the single track road ahead of us!  The consequences of what could have gone wrong were too awful to contemplate, so we cut through the fields instead!
