The joy for me of the birds, the mountains beyond , the silence in my garden and not being overlooked by anyone , although there are other houses near, I love it. Even at the moment when cant get across the grass in my chair because have nearly 50 molehills! After living in a Sussex town with noise especially from neighbours and traffic, so much traffic ! Its a dream sort of come true to be in such beautiful and peaceful surroundings , lived here since 1994 .Within ten minutes of being up yesterday I had seen from kitchen door 10 blue tits , 2 great tits, 2 long tailed tits, 1 robin, 3 chaffinch all feeding at the feeders and on patio.
