Where has the time gone? We have already reached fire week! As our fire pit is based on our allotment, we took the time to look around and we discovered some rather amazing (and strange) things going on. Firstly, we decided to do some pond dipping and were amazed to find lots of newts and rather tiny little frogs hopping about. Tara allowed one to sit on her hand so we could all take a closer look. It really was tiny! Then we took a look around our allotment and to our amazement discovered that something had been digging in our vegetable beds and taken some of our potatoes! Who could it be? What could it be? We thought about the type of animals who may like potatoes and we had lots of thought. We thought it could be potato burglar or maybe a fox! We then started to search around the allotment for other signs of stolen vegetables but we found nothing. After a little watering and weeding, we made our pizzas and enjoyed our lunch. Delicious!

After lunch, it was time to tidy. Lisa began to place the tools into the shed when we heard a scream! She had discovered a nest in our shed and the bird inside decided to fly right past her. We investigated by being very quiet and now we hope we have some bird eggs safe and warm inside our shed (don’t worry, the Mummy bird can get in and out as she pleases).We will keep be keeping a close eye and will keep you updated.
