Another Grand Day

Not quite so warm yesterday but plenty of Sunshine and a top temperature of 13.8C. Just right for getting things done. I had finally made my mind up about the camera inside the Hedgehog House. Instead of permanently replacing one of the other cameras why not automatically switch between cameras at dawn and dusk. I already had a 12V supply in the shed which worked some LED lights over the shed doors at night so I jigged a little circuit with a relay to switch the feed between the bird table camera in the daytime and the Hedgehog House camera at night.

Still no signs of any takers in the camera nest boxes this year.

Did a little clearing up in the garden and had just decided to call it a day when a Hardy Phoenix Palm Tree I had ordered from Amazon turned up. Re-potted it in a slightly larger and better pot and buried that in a raised bed next to the pond:

As today promises to be another good one I will move things around and do a bit more tidying up. That's the theory anyway.
