Pond and Yard

We had 3 ring-necked pheasants (introduced from Asia in the 11th century) pottering about in our Welsh garden one day, one of which was melanistic, a rare, dark coloration. Dale was able to get a lovely pic of a regular one from our living room.


as well as this one showing the dark variant


We also spotted a heron near our pond, which currently looks like this after a year of neglect. Some big projects await!



Red kites, crows and a tawny owl were also part of the menagerie.

Just a reminder, this is winter in Wales
