March



OK, I'm writing this at the end of May, but March was an interesting month. We really had a hard winter here on Bornholm, and when the signs of spring finally started appearing they were very welcome and felt long overdue. One positive aspect of the hard winter, however, was the increased bird life in the garden around the feeders. The pheasant (Phreddy) came every morning between 8 and 9, and then later around lunchtime. Sometimes he would be accompanied by some of his ladies, who seemed shy and demure compared to him. I filled nearly a whole sketchbook wirh phreddy pictures, and I look forward to taking them somewhere.
