Have a special Valentines Day...
Wishing you all a very Happy Valentines Day - traditionally a day where birds are to have thought to have chosen their mate!
With the quantity of little Blue Tits in our garden right now - I reckon a Speed Dating event is needed!! Have a special day...

Dear Miranda, What a really charming posting. And it is good to be reminded of another aspect of Valentine's Day - the birds choosing a mate.
Thankyou for visiting Edith - I just wanted to do something simple for Valentines - I thought this would make a change from the traditional card for my hubby this year - just made out of a single hazel branch! Bon weekend - Miranda
Hi Gail - thanks for popping over - I reckon that there won't be many gardening lovers who don't like chocolate!!! Nothing like a treat with a nice cup of coffee when you're out working in the garden - you somehow feel like you can justify the calories :-)) Miranda x
Hi Debs - thanks for popping over - hope you had a good weekend.... you can never have enough nesting boxes... the birds here seem to be checking them out - have been for the past few weeks... have a good week Miranda x
Hi Diana - it is always a real pleasure to welcome new people to my blog site and thank you too for adding yourself as a follower...hope to get over to your blog as well - enjoy your week and will look forward to you visiting again... Miranda
Miranda, around here, it is the goldfinch which would have to do the speed dating. With the latest round of rain and cold, they have really descended on our feeders. Right now they are about the only color in the garden. Hope you had a lovely Valentine's Day.
Hi Jan- thanks for your kind comments - the Goldfinches aren't half greedy when it comes to gobbling up all the seed.... we now have a regular pair that visit the garden and I think stay on the seed feeder from morning till night... perhaps they're just hungry!? Their colours are beautiful... hope you too had a lovely Valentines Day - my hubby had been away all week in the UK so it was nice to have him back to share the day with.
As an aside - have you had problems getting on to Blotanical recently? I can't access the site at all and wonderered if anyone knew? Take care Miranda x

How delightful - I didnt know that it was traditionally the days when birds chose their mate - I really like that thought.
Like your blue tits - our sparrows - of which we have 100's must also be speed dating.
Thank you Miranda~I hope the day is filled with goodness and some excellent chocolate! gail
This reminds me I had better get my bird houses ready! Happy Valentines Day to you!
Hello Miranda, I just came upon your lovely blog and happy to have done so. I look forward to your postings. Happy Valentine's Day. Diana
Hi Karen - hope you've had a good weekend - thanks for your lovely comments - hope the sparrows have been busy finding mates!
Do you know if there is a major problem with Blotanical as it's been unavailable since yesterday and I still can't get on the site?
Have a good weekend - Miranda x
