Thanks Alp and Logan. My bike ride seemed to help me feel some better.

Went up to split rock valley.

Good morning! Glad that you feel better, @johnny canoe ! Very strange to talk to a person preceding with a @!

You're so lucky to have such a big swathe of the countryside, with waters and hills, all to yourself! Marvellous.. !

The split rock is interesting.. Is it natural or was it really split by someone.. I forgot that bit.

@Grey Parrot mentioned videos, I am inserting one of mine - stoats in Fountaine Abbey, Yorkshire.

The videos have been made short by Youtube, so sorry they are a bit short

please turn down the volume of the sound as it was extremely windy that day!

Morning Upsy Daisy. It's raining here in Redditch:(, but mild hope to do some gardening this afternoon, it should have stopped by then. If not I'm going to wash my hair, instead of tomorrow.:)

@Upsy Daisy: LOL! Well, no harm done! Haha! I hope to see Runny before I head for bed.. Too elusive ..

Have you had a good day, Daisy? I'm so tired and I think I will go to bed soon.

Vishu: talking about lilies: I was looking for my hair dye and plunged my hands into something moist. Lo and behold, I have tons of bulblets of Asiatic lilies.. I will upload a pic for you to enjoy tomorrow.. It's so easy to propagate them.
Wow!!! Really?? Do share pics!!!!! What color? I too have some yellow pixie Asiatic lily bublets.....
Wow, a peacock in UK! Can they survive the cold?? They are our national bird. Btw, what is your National bird?

They are loads of peacocks in the UK and the way they scream can be quite annoying.. You usually see one or two roaming in stately homes.

Don't know the colour yet, I put the scales into moist compost and now there are tons of bulblets.
