Day in the South West-Part 2

So OK these guys are not natives (grin), we went to Longleat one of the British country homes which have to have a safari park in the garden to make the place pay for itself. These two are on the bonnet of our car.
I adored these little chaps climbing over the cars. I felt this little baby had the look of ET about him

There was no option but to go slowly as the jumped from car to car and ran around on the road.

Of course some parts of some cars were just too irresistible to play with.

Looks like a good place to sneak into.

Quite comfy really.

A phantom pregnancy perhaps, but Tigger?


It was worth the trip just for the fun these chaps delivered.
Our car survived intact but I don't think I'd have minded much if it hadn't.

Heading South West in England

I know I posted another photo of Stone Henge earlier in the year but it looks so different in dreary dank weather.
We could see much further but the grey of the sky and the grey of the distant hills have blended together.



But where were we with these guinea fowl crossing the road? I used to have some of these, though I'd never seen one with the white area like this before.

Tomorrow I shall reveal what we saw on our day trip out.
It was good to have a day off stitching after the last manic few weeks.
