Waiting

On warm mornings when the door is open first thing, Bean sits and waits for Tilda (black lab x rottweiler) to be let out over the road. 

As soon as she puts in an appearance the morning barking chat starts. When there are particularly juicy bits of gossip to discuss Bean runs down to our gate and the volume is turned down a little. 

It is a sunny day with some expected and some unexpected visitors popping in. Not much else is getting done, so I've stopped trying and have succumbed to cups of tea, mince pies and general bonhomie.

Thank you everybody for the stars, hearts and comments on my 200th yesterday. You're a lovely bunch of Blippers :-)

By the way the odd structure in the background is a bird nesting box, fully occupied by starlings, but apparently designed for Moreporks (owls).
