 I climbed up towards the old hedge, by all the blue flowers. There are bluebells on the hedge too, as well as red flowers - a few red campions. There's a new hole in the hedge and stones on the grass - some animal was digging in the night. Who is the digger? Does it want to live in my garden? The hole is too small for a badger, and a mouse or rabbit could not move big stones. (And I haven't seen a single rabbit.) No. It must be a badger. There's the remains of an old dead tree in the hedge. Probably the roots are rotted and full of grubs - a lovely snack for a hungry beast. The cat  is looking at something. I don't think it's the cow parsley. Is it hunting? I look down hill. Somebody is busy. A neighbour has a bonfire and my husband is painting the white gate.
