Signs of spring Waddow Lodge

On 20th February we saw our first Curlew of the season - all 22 of them! They seemed to navigate by aiming for Horseshoe Wood at Waddow Hall and then carried on up the valley towards Gisburn.
Also a family of deer spotted below Horseshoe Wood, 2 adults, 3 young plus an attendant hare.
Plenty of bird life with feeders being replenished several times per week.

New rose border being dug ready for planting and the fence around the new fruit and veg garden is going in mid March.

Snowdrops are looking their best ever. Also Witch Hazel in full flower with Snowflakes (Leucojum) now out as well.
