Kestrel Nest Box – Wallingford, Oxfordshire
You are watching a live feed of a Kestrel nest box located in the United Kingdom. Since 2015 the CEH has followed Kestrel nesting via live webcams, offering a glimpse into the breeding behavior of these birds of prey.
It has been such fun chatting together this morning.💕
I have to go we are leaving soon to go up to camp and get a lot of stuff done there today, hopefully a lot.
Dont work too hard Jenn.
Rick saw this big yellow grasshopper on our Amethyst plant yesterday.
Cool 😎💛 I’ve never seen a yellow grasshopper before your pic.
Great capture, Ardy 😀
We hadnt either!
Good morning Well, I just stepped in dog pee in the spare room ….with bare feet on the tile floor!!! This is the second time now Nikki has done that. In the past she has peed on rugs but never the tile. We had a great time with our friends, Jakki and Shannon, at the Red Garter eating last night. I dont know if I told you when I was in MN. I took JoAnn and Mike out to eat at the nicest restaurant in their town of 4,000 people. I ordered a rum and coke in a tall glass… Read more »
You can see it placed upside down so everything was sliding out too.
But, we had lots of laughs!
Hi Ardy
Sorry about the disappointing food experience but I’m glad you had a fun time 😀
Lots of laughs!!!
Kathy I am an impulse buyer. I just ordered two purses from View your Deal that were $19 a piece and sell for $45…..they are kind of flimsy and no pockets on the inside…..I must stop and think before ordering things
Ardy, let’s make a pact to stop and think before we buy 🤔
I think that sounds good or I am going to have to go to rehab😫
LOL I thought it was a plant, goodness I must be loosing it ! 😁
lol Beryl…..it was lots of limes as a joke.😂
Happy you had a good time with your friends last night. How upsetting to pay a lot for a meal and have it taste so bad you do not want to eat it. I like the 3 limes.🍈
Yuck with stepping in the pee.🙀
We had a lot of laughs over the food……she did take $6 off Ricks meal.
Good Morning! Nice and comfortable this morning but it will be hot this afternoon. Sunny and 59 at 8:00 AM going up to 88. So I’ll be going back to Kohl’s this morning to return my impulse buy of two carbon steel rectangular cake pans that I really didn’t need. They’re heavier than I like but as I mentioned, I didn’t really need them. They were on a good sale so I gave in to temptation 🙄 I haven’t planned out the rest of my day yet. When Craig got home from work yesterday he reminded me that it had… Read more »
Happy furever home to Matcha and Chai.
Your plants are beautiful Kathy.
Thank you ♥️
Happy Gottcha Day to you and Craig. You and the kitties are so lucky to have each other.💕💖💛
Your Begonias look lovely.💗
🥰
Good morning, Foggy but burning off with sun and clouds today. Have not seen the sun really since the storm. I got my new stove put in yesterday. The stove here had the coil top and they were lopsided and it was pretty old. A pot or frying pan set on it leaned right upwards. If it had broken the village ( this housing is called Brunswick Retirement Village ) would pay but it was so bad I couldn’t wait for it to stop working so we ordered a glass top Whirlpool, on sale at Lowe’s. Seth, who is the… Read more »
Hi Jenn.
A nice neat looking oven I expect you will be using that a lot.😘
Yes I will Ice, I love to bake and cook and I use my oven about everyday.
Pity I cannot come around for a taste or two.lol.
That would be fun if you could Ice.😘
I would come too if it was possible. That would be so fun 😄
Hi Kathy.
What a meeting that would be.😀😘
It would be awesome 😘
I would love that Kathy. 💗
We could all come now that would be something, lol !
I would love that, Beryl 🥰
A dream it is but a dream ! 💫
True that💫
Hi Jenn
That was very kind of Seth and Daniel to install your new stove. It looks very nice 😀
They are so nice and thoughtful. So thankful they are in charge now, the other manager when we were here before did not like to help elderly people like he does. There were other things before but we are so happy now there is a whole good vibe here and we feel so settled with that. Our next door neighbors are so super nice, Gary and Carolyn. She came over yesterday afternoon for a little visit.♥.
💗
Hi Jenn
Glad you were able to get your new stove in with the help of Daniel.
I wish we couold see through out window. Rick might be a great cook but, when it comes to cleaning the oven he is NOT. I wont clean the oven since I dont cook and I clean the rest of the house plus all the windows. 😃
Hi Ardy, I don’t blame you for not wanting to clean the oven! The old one we had here you could not see through years of grime. I have met Bonnie, the lady who lived here before us. She just married a fellow here and moved from her apartment to his. She came in and told me that the stove was here in 2012 when she moved in and it wasn’t new them. These older stoves seem to have a longer life! We put the light on the oven last night as a kitchen night lite. It looked so gentle… Read more »
I am envious of your clean stove……..😘
yes, older stoves last longer..we have a 1940 stove!
Hi Jenn, love the dials up top I could not find one here but its so much easier I think !
Mine are glass too and doors but they have to be cleaned more to see what’s cooking and mine are so heavy I am afraid of dropping them when I slide them out to clean ! !
Yes those glass doors are heavy. About 4 years ago I asked Denny to help me pull the door up and off the stove to clean it good inside and out. I said ‘do not put your hand near the bottom hinge just lift straight up. He put his hand right on the bottom hinge and almost cut his thumb off. He has the picture of it on his phone. Gross! He needed stitches at the ER.
I do love the dials up top too, the old one they took out of here had front knobs.
Good morning, 65f and a sunny day, sitting here eating my breakfast at nearly midday. Don’t know if its warm or not as I have only just got dressed but I need to water the birds in a minute so I shall see but the shorts are gone sadly ! Lots of flowers out and things flowering that I thought were finished for this year which makes in nice to step out, dreading the cold and wet and being shut in ! Marks coming down next week as the windows are being done and he can sort it while I… Read more »
Hi Beryl,
Cute image!💛💜💗
I always feel the same when the seasons change and I won’t be outside as much. Seeing the flowers die back and the leaves falling is kinda sad.
Are you getting new windows ?
New glass and a lot of work on the frames which are in bad condition but I rent my house so no sweat !
Hi Beryl,
Good luck with the new windows they will help to keep your house warmer.😘
Don’t bet on it ice if you could see the mess my windows are in you would see why I put the heating on so often !
Hi Beryl
Very colorful greeting image 💜
That’s great Mark will be with you while the windows are being done ☺️
Hi Kathy, yes he can sort it while I go hide somewhere, lol !
🤗
Hi Beryl
Very cute image. How nice Mark is coming, you will enjoy his company.
Good morning. Beryl, Jenn, Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam. A cool night just 50F this morning and all the windows in the house are misted over on the outside waiting for the sun to clear them. Driving up the bypass this morning gave a real Autumnal feel leaves now turning and a mist rising from the river and spilling on to the surrounding fields, a lovely sight. High of 68F today but by next week we shall be dropping into the 50F range. Still no real rain in the forecast and the Green is looking a bit tired again, brown patches… Read more »
Hi ice, you have lived a life before I even get up and rising in darkness is such a no no for me as it makes such a long day !
I cleared a lovely patch of earth only to look out and see it covered with weeds but I shall wait until Spring and get the weed killer out as its so much easier than weeding ! 😘
Hi Beryl.
We still seem to be wide awake at about 5-30 every morning.
We can’t just lie there so we get up.
We do see more of the day.lol.😘
Good morning Ice,
Pretty summery image.😀
We are in the 50’s overnight now and after a very warm few days it turns to very cold coming into next week.😬
Hi Jenn.I have my Winter cardigans ready as it is certain to be colder next week.
We will probably look at the 50F range as nice and warm when the real Winter sets in.❄😟
Good morning Ice
Sounds like Fall is on its way.
Hi Andy.
Well on t’s way now, happening too quick.lol.😘
It is happening here too.The nights are cooler and I a dreading it.
