Muck Pond

I’m afraid the dry weather has not been favourable to the Spring Wells.  The flow has got so low that weed and the like is just building up.  The springs have only dried up twice in living memory – in 1967 and in 2011.  Let’s hope we don’t have a repeat this year.
 
An odd thing I noticed that there was a lack of hens, in fact I think they were all drakes.  Biskit, as ever, took no notice of them at all.  He as given up trying to make friends.  Likewise the ducks ignore him, unless the sent trail he is following goes straight through where they are sitting . . .
 
Biskit is now officially on his hols.  The rest of the family are off to Scotland tomorrow.
 
Our weekly fish supper has been moved to this evening so that Biskit can have a large sausage with us . . .
