30 Days Wild in the suburbs – and beyond: Day 11

Definitely a fail this time, I’m afraid – I have missed Day 11 by nearly 30 minutes!

Completely different territory covered too, as I was helping my daughter look for somewhere to live, and visiting a livery yard where the horses enjoy a wonderfully quiet and stress free life.

Horses do not really count as ‘wild’ in these circumstances, but as they are extremely photogenic, they get a place here anyway:

The fly masks are essential at this time of year, and often a body sheet too, as the flies, which are definitely wild, drive the horses crazy otherwise.

So what did I find that was really wild today? Birds, obviously: blackbird and crow looking for food:

And then the creator of the pretty impressive burrows that are very common around the yard:

One of the very many to be seen:

Will do better tomorrow – or make that today!
