Morning all, bright and sunny here today. A cooler breeze. I'll be honest I'm not looking forward to the next heatwave that's on the way. I'm not a sun worshiper lol

I only shut it at night
No no. Idea where they are getting in but found them under the sink where I keep cleaning products
So I thought I'd go to the hardware shop for steel wool and expanding foam and try using it bavm if cabinet s

@Amberpearl I have had a similar experience with mice now and then, and actually had one in my kitchen the weekend, they can get into the smallest of holes, I had to use the wire wool on the outside of the house, where my washing pipe is and it has helped I had my back door open letting my dog in, and I have extractor fans in the wall and bathroom. My cat is an indoor cat and she catches and kills them, it's not the most nicest of methods but im terrified of mice and rats, i also tried the peppermint oil, I had the plug which I think did help, I only seem to get one or two a time, so not much droppings. I think the plug and blocking holes with wire wool works the best, there are also sticky mats and traps with a bit of peanut butter which they love but it's not very humane or pleasant. Good luck.

Very unpleasant for you, Amberpearl. Get a terrier, any terrier, I kid you not. (Do you know anyone with a terrier you could have whilst they are on holiday etc?)
Gus would go through them like a dose of salts.

@Catherine21 no such luck, it's a picture from Tichwell in Norfolk an RSPB Sight, ive stayed at a couple of their sites, the accommodation was a lovely big house, but not very cheap, my mum and dad are keen birdwatchers and my dad is a rRSPB warden at upton Warren. I loved it their im a novice birdwatcher. It was the sunniest picture I had without people on it lol.

@Catherine21 the RSPB sites are protected similar to the National Trust, there are alot of them all over the UK. you can join the RSPB and go onto any of the sites, you get a car sticker and pass, their magazine. If you want to visit some of the bigger sites you can have volunteers who operate the car park and charge a small amount to go on the site. Some have a shop, such as one in Weymouth and Slimbridge.
I love Robins and Wrens but my favourite birds are owls, which i never seem to see and pirds of prey such as Marsh Harriers that ive seen in Norfolk and kites down south.
Spring Watch go on alot of the RSPB sites some of which I've been too. You can see deer's and bat's, I love nature and the sounds of different birds. It's so peaceful.
This is a Great Tit in my mum and dad's garden this spring.
Great White Egret above.

Here's one of the hawks we saw later. My son was sat beside me, & actually had to duck as it swooped in to land just above him

@chiarieds beautiful picture's. I hope you and your son and his wife enjoyed seeing them, they are so magnificent close up, especially with their wings open, i would have ducked to. If you ever get the chance to hold one they are heavier than you expect, I held a Haris Hawk at a garden centre, I had a picture taken, but it's on an older sd card. I love watching them.

Good morning all. It’s not the start that I wanted today. Had a dispute with the neighbour over him blocking the driveway to my house. Some people are so selfish
