Birds of a feather / Scenes from my garden

I had a lot of positive response about this bird (which has now sold on Folksy - yay!)


So I'm in the process of creating a whole flock in bright, boiled-sweet colours:


Meanwhile, our garden is looking especially luscious at the moment (and is also teeming with fabulous creepy crawlies to keep the girls entertained for hours):


More excitingly, the cherry tree we only planted this Spring, is bearing the most amazing Disney-esque fruit - red, shiny, plump and JUICY!


It's a shame the same can't be said for the Conference Pear, which looks a little bit sorry for itself with no fruit at all and slightly black tinged leaves :(
We had such high hopes for it too, the blossom was so beautiful back in April:


Finally, I've been spending a lot of time hanging around this blog, not just because she's got a really cool name (heh heh), but for beautiful images like this, this and this. Plus she has possibly the most photogenic pregnant bump I have ever seen!
