my corner of earth

"This corner of the earth is like me in many ways, I can sit for hours here and watch the emerald feathers play. On the face of this I'm blessed, When the sunlight comes for free. I know this corner of the earth, it smiles at me"

Where do ladybirds go in winter? That's what I've been pondering when I've spied them burrowing into various nooks and crannies around the garden these past few weeks. Today I spotted a group huddling in a hollow stem of rhubarb! I hope they find cosy places to hibernate for the winter so they'll come back next year.

More of this today I think - working to get the raised beds cleared and mulched this weekend. I’m using home-made compost and am adding some well rotted horse manure to the mix for an extra boost of nutrients. #compost #composting #compostbin #mulch #mulching #autumn #autumngarden #ilovecompost #secretgarden #raisedbeds #potager #kitchengarden #thehappygardeninglife #garden #gardening #gardeninglife #flowers #gardendesign #gardeningtime #lovegardening #plants #mygardentoday #gardenlife #plantlover #gardeningday

Hey Terry! Terry lives in my compost bins and I uncovered him this morning while shovelling compost to mulch the raised beds. He looked a bit sleepy, so I popped him into the second heap and covered him with some grass and leaves. Hope he’s comfy in there over the winter. #toad #gardenwildlife #mygarden #naturegarden #wildlifefriendlygarden #secretgarden #raisedbeds #potager #kitchengarden #garden #gardening #gardeninglife #gardeningtime #flower #thehappygardeninglife #lovegardening #mygardentoday #gardenlife #gardeningday #compost #composting #compostbin #ilovecompost
