Found out what the smoking oak tree could be.. and its not smoke but something simple, a swarm of insects maybe midges or even mosquitos swarming or mating.. made sense.. still something not many people would get to witness apparently let alone catch on film....

Trees for dancing in

Tanzlinden are trees designed for dancing in. Found across Germany, the oldest is from the 1680s. The branches envelop a platform for meeting & dancing.

The newborn ones give us hope, like signs of new beginnings, spring is perhaps my favourite time of year

The moorhens don't fly well, usually just low flyers from what I've seen.

I got an email from the canal and river trust this morning with pictures of the baby swans, moorhens and coots

I've had a couple of days of painting as my friend's been staying and a trip out to the garden centre...it's great because they have a Hobbycraft there and I get to go visit the aquariums.  I love seeing all the fishes and got some ready grown antirrhinums in a gold orange colours, so that's my job to pot them up today a I've been sorting out my planters and weeding.

Think there was a kill on the lawn, lots of feathers about, there's a sparrow hawk which I see occasionally, he or she sits on the fence with back to the garden tearing bits of his kill

Moorhens thats a good name for them,yours have awesome colours,the Pukeko are actually very cleaver birds, but very poor fliers, and have no road sense too, they often get run over,cos they make their nests way to close to the road edges, then try to fly over the busy road like in a random decision... but then dont get enough height cos their bodies are too heavy..so they become fodder for the native falcons & hawkes..who eat road kill, then they too have been known to get hit by traffic trying to take off with their road kill,only they not getting up high fast enough either..tragic really but part of natures selection over here..
