Drying off

It was only after the heavy rain and cormorant spotting that Leanne and I both realised at the same time that was the first cormorant we’d seen for a long time. There used to be lots of them nesting in the tall trees near Cedar Pond. Where have they all gone? And why was one lone one her today? 

Another mad day - it’s that time of year! One of my team today, guiding a class of children in the castle went into the chapel, sat them down, did her spiel and then found they were locked in! No one knows who slid that bolt but despite much banging and yelling none of the castle staff seemed to hear them! It was Leanne, helping out because of the large numbers that heard the racket and investigated!
