Nous sommes le mardi vingt sept decembre

A thick mist this morning but no frost and it was suprisingly mild out in the fields this morning.
The moles are having  "a field day" and walking over to the stable in the half light I kept tripping over mole hills. They are unsightly but unlike Malc who they drive mad, I like to think of the little animals enjoying their life burrowing away in their own world. Just occasionally Bonny the retriever will have a spell of mole catching  but on the whole they can live predator free.
Malc has tried sonic mole scarers but it only makes them move to another section of lawn and then drives me mad when I am on the mower and have to stop to pull them out.
Live and let live my motto.
