It has been a busy time at the Fairy Sanctuary over Christmas with lots of fairies looking for new homes. The Sanctuary was full to overflowing. I have not had much time for blogging so apologies for the long silence.
Fortunately all our lovely fairies found homes in time for the big day and spent Christmas on top of trees and leaving fairy footprints in brandy butter.
Now we are looking forward to a new batch of arrivals for the Spring. Its always an exiting time when the first signs of Spring begin to stir in the Sanctuary garden. We even have a couple of crocus bulbs in flower on the kitchen window sill.
We have had plenty of garden visitors and of course we took part in the R.S.P.B. garden bird survey.
We are lucky enough to have a heron in the stretch of river at the bottom of the Sanctuary and we enjoy his daily visits. We also have a dipper who can be seen low flying at speed along the river like a tornado. He is such a comical looking bird like a large black and white robin.
Well I hope you are looking after the fairies in your garden by leaving a piece of chocolate or shiny pebble for them to find. They do love presents and will be grateful for your kindness.
I am off to my knitting circle now, I am knitting ear warmers to match my wand.
