Thoughts from Ducks

Ducks Paddle Blooms and we set up our Campsite

5/4/2025

April arrives and we welcome our Easter holiday guests. Our hens are laying well so we can avoid chocolate eggs and savour the real thing.

The gardens are full of primroses and daffodils and we saw the first swallows passing through on April the 2nd. The wildlife pond is teeming with tadpoles. I can already see it is going to be another bumper year for foxgloves. I managed to spruce up the potting shed with left over emulsion from the previous owners and it is looking much prettier now.

​Work is forging ahead on the "nearly wild campsite" with the new campfire pit set up and the washing up station set up. I have been running wild with ideas for signage and can't wait to get started on them in my workshop. Camping will be very basic, tents only with just a toilet, cold water taps and of course the all important campfire. Pitch up, tune out and relax!
