Sunny Sunday

What a beautiful day after all that rain. We've been up to Burnby Hall Gardens at Pocklington for the day to see a falconcry display and have a picnic. We went all prepared for rain with unbrellas and coats but didn't need them at all, it was lovely. Hope everyone else had a good day too and got to enjoy the sunshine.

hi CC, we went car booting, i finally got a door stop!! only been trying to find something suitable for 3 years now, got an old cast iron Iron n it's perfect!!!

Sounds like you both had a really good day, it was so nice to get some sunshine

We spent the day inside... sigh... little dd is poorly, still not good today so she's off school still (been poorly since Thursday). High temps and upset tummy, followed by lots of energy and feeling better for 1/2 hour, then poorly again, especially at night. Me ad ES are bit sleep deprived

We sat out in the sunshine, I cooked a lovely chicken tea, followed by icecream and flake, then home cooked scones, YEP! my appetite def back lol!!!
Last year a Falconry bloke came to little sons school and did a display, it was fab! bet its the same place, they guy who came was nice but had a very "drony" voice that to be honest would soon send you to sleep. He brought some owls, a couple of falcons and some other birds but cant remember what.

It was a Falconry centre near york that were displaying the birds. They brought allsorts of different birds and did quite a bit of flying and not too much talking. Hubby really loves the owls and has spent a day flying them before.

We were watching a display on a day out a few years ago when dd was only small. Andrew was holding her, while myself and Adam stood next to them watching, then one of the hawks came and landed on Andrew's shoulder.... pandemonium... Adam grabbed Imogen (who was screaming - she'd been resting on that shoulder!!!)... I collapsed laughing... oops, I'm I was concerned and the bloke doing the display had to try and get the bird back... day out we'll never forget

I would have done the same FT's !!

I love all sorts of birds but prefer small ones, I have little zebra finches (5) and have had budgies in the past. I like owls but wouldn't hold one or anything.
