Rain!.....Oh come on ....really.. its Summer for goodness sake!

Hello there....how is it with you ....don't tell me .... you have a drop of rain!

I'm tired of it ... just can't get any outside jobs done....



 The dogs are tired of it ... poor old girl.... Fly feels the damp in her old bones and really didn't want to leave her bed until I lit the fire and she could doze in front of it.
 

 Percy the Pigeon is tired of the rain .... he's taken to roosting in the woodshed at night and wandering the garden during the day.


He didn't want to leave his roost this morning in the downpour that was the daylong weather ... so Hubby P gave him breakfast in bed .... you can see the remains of the grain on the logs if you look carefully.
I think I have gone wrong somewhere ..... Can't say I remember when I last had breakfast in bed! 



 Even our comings and goings through the gate and Uncas ... 'Gate Guarding' as he does ...even in the rain/snow or whatever.. given the chance....couldn't shift Percy.
For those of you who have followed the saga of Percy ...he is a lot better and quite a happy chappy moochin about the garden, his wing seems to be stronger and he has an attempt at flying now and then but its not great. 
I don't know that we can do any more for him ... hopefully he is a little safer whilst he stays in the garden.

Even Hubby P is tired of the constant rain....he sits in the doorway ....his favourite spot....watching the rain ....


 He had company today ....one or two little birds sheltering under the apple tree .... and can you see him .... sat watching Hubby P ....as Hubby P sat watching him....


 Directly across in the tatty old tool shed.....


A little bird ... sheltering from the rain....

Well that's been my day .... to be honest not a lot done .....rain stops play as they say .... 

Any excitement in your lives ... what do you do these rainy days?
