Day 8: Local nature, Olive and Peaches

One of the good things about living in the country is that nature is literally on the doorstep and we get a wide variety of birds in the back garden and sometimes deer in the fields behind when they are not full of cows. 

We also have 2 additional members of the household, Olive and Peaches who are sisters and who we acquired from the RSPCA near the start of lockdown – they were abandoned by their mum at the huge supermarket depot on the M5 near Taunton and then hand-reared by a volunteer.

They however are not able to join me in my challenge and indeed unfortunately make us more familiar with the occasional smaller furrier members of the local wildlife when they bring them in! As you can see they also would rather I was feeding them than working and writing blog -posts!
