Blog Of The Month - June

This year, I'm dedicating one post each month to Blog Of The Month. This is where I feature a blog I'm enjoying reading. Some blogs will be new to me, others may be blogs I've been reading for a while. I hope that by doing this, I can introduce some of my readers to other, interesting blogs, though I know that some of you will already read the blogs I feature.

The Blog Of The Month for June is Rusty Duck. Jessica has been blogging for a whisker under a year and her blog is a joy to read. The blog documents her day to day life of living in a thatched cottage which is being renovated, and gardening on a slope.

I really enjoy reading about the visiting wildlife, though some creatures can be trying at times for Jessica. Take Ptolemy the pheasant, he thinks he rules the roost, or the squirrels which raid the peanut feeders.They've now been thwarted, but there's plenty more creatures waiting on the sidelines to hinder a peaceful growing season.

If you haven't yet discovered Jessica's blog, you're in for a treat. Do pop over and have a read, and don't forget to let Jessica know that I sent you.

  3. Ptolemy. That's a pretty upmarket name for a pheasant. He must be up at the top of the food pyramid!
