Mr Mole

We set off for our walk with Ruaridh in the woods, I was on the look out for May flowers the small mauve flower that as kids we used to collect, as I wanted to photograph same! Saw lots of primroses, then suddenly I saw about three of the above mentioned flowers, I did take a photo but unfortunatly it was out of focus used my small camera, better luck later on. On the way back home came across what I thought was a lump of muck, or a dead thing sure enough it was a dead mole! Poor wee thing just laid there on the path, have never seen a mole alive or dead before, just seen moleskins years ago hung on a fence in Lancashire, supposedly to frighten away live moles. It was amazing to see the small hands and feet! Ruaridh did not see it he was to busy roaming the forest!
Was going to clear the grass from the front lawn but the rain came on, will do it tomorrow, if fine!
Made scones and pancakes, also made dinner leek quiche, roast tatties and broad beans.
Rather tired. Goodnight.
