I Spy a Hairy Tailed Thief!

 Hello Woofers!

Daisy here.

Well, we have all read about Chewie and the squirrel in the back garden and I must admit, we have never seen one of these things in our garden......until now!

After our morning walk which was a bit earlier than normal, mainly cos I chased OTL out to the car and off to the seaside. 'cos I needed a poo!

When we got down to the sea.  front we were greeted by a red sky! But, as OTL reminded of the saying, Red Sky in the Morning, 'Woofers Warning'


OK, it's not the best red sky we've seen in a long time.


Another thing we haven't seen for a while is the (Ox Hide)  (Oxide Daisy) which alwatys flowers after the Slippy cows!


Cow Slips are finished and now it's the Oxide Daisies turn.

Back home OTL was called from. the kitchen to view a Hairy Sparrow that was feeding from the bird feeder!

It was only when the squirrel spotted us we were able to identify it!

Our very first Squirrel!


It didn't hang about once it spotted OTL and there was just enough time to get a picture before he was over the fence and away!

I'm a Hairy Squirrel and you can't catch me!

    Your daisies are very pretty but your spillchucker is playing tricks on you as the daisies are Oxeye, not Oxide (like TM’s ink pads).

    I liked your sky too.

    Blinking squirrels. I had to buy a squirrel proof bird feeder to stop their hairy tailed thieving!! Works though!!! Xxx

    Yo Daisy. Well now that the squirrel has found you, it will be back with its mates, they like nothing more than a free feed. I'll ask Harry hairball to pop down your way and he'll see it off. We had a little bit of a lay in this morning, we didn't get up until just before 6 so our walk was a little bit late. One thing about going out a bit later was we bumped into lots more woofers than we usually see. First of all we came across a springer called Poppy, then a mongrel called Kobi, then a little red setter pup who was called Rusty, now he was only 14 weeks old and Chewie was so well behaved when he stopped for sniffs. Well those were who we bumped into before we got even 25 yards from the house. Chewie is getting to be a really good boy when he meets other woofers. Chewie and the boy have been playing in the garden with the 3legged octopus, both of them chasing round. Smashing pictures today. It's warmed up over the day. Time for paws up I think. Take care, stay safe all. Love, little Arch's mum, the boy and Chewie. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Getting ready for a weekend away!

Hi Woofers Daisy here. There was a gentle breeze blowing this morning and we could see a small yacht sailing between the  trunks of the two trees. If you screw your eyes and put your nose right up to screen you can just see the yacht! Once you got past the trees the whole estuary opens up and you can see the beams of light bouncing off the sea. There wasn't any sign of Devo or Zoro and once again The Lads were too far away for me to hang about waiting for them to catch up. I stopped for a sniff in the woods and OTL took a picture of a squirrel that was swinging through the trees like Tarzan. Trouble is, you can't see the little hairy thing for the trees! Lunchtime was fun, we went out to get some petrol as the care is going to be used by The Missus this weekend. Instead of going straight home we carried on down to Grain again, just in time to catch the high tide. Tides in and the sniffs are high! Of course if the tide is high and the water is warm enough there is every chance I...

Is this jumper yours and what's this thing with four legs?

Hi Woofers, Daisy here. It was around four fifteen that OTL crawled out of bed for a wee. but he woke me up at the same time. So, around six forty five we found we had both over slept! Now,  late arrival means no Lads or any other signs. of woofers! With a little fiddly diddly OTL managed to make an interesting cloud formation! A bit further along came across a bench with a sweater draped across the back. It has obviously been abandonde by some young Two Legs judging by the drawing on the front! I decided to sniff it but not wee on it, I'm good like that! Back home we had a look for froggies in the pond but there was nothing but Taddly Poles. UNTIL! There, on the path by the side of the pond, out of the pond TM spotted a Tidily Froggyheading for the undergrowth! Grabbing a clean mug from the dish washer, she scooped the Froggie up and rushed up to show OTL. Out comes the camera and quick as a flash he ran off a few snaps before letting it go again. Here we are, the first Froggie th...

Saturday sunshine.

Hello Woofers, Daisy Dog here again. Well, I was looking forward to a bit of sunshine and a stroll along the sea wall. The Lads Were in front of me and down on the seafront so I hung around on the middle path which was far enough away from thos ball throwing hooligans! It was also interesting to see a ship come steaming up the Medway, looking to get into the docks while the tide was in it's favour..   There seemed to be a few more daisies in the field that there were yesterday but I reckon they will last just as long as the Cowslip flower. Looking across the field you could get a better idea of just how many flowers were growing in the field. I'm not sure what is the next flower to sprout, maybe the Goat's Beard will come into flower. I have noticed a few fungi sprouting and they are a funny thing. they are the third growth. You see we have the mammals which includes woofers, insects fish, in fact anything that breathes or moves. Next is the trees and flowers and anything w...
