A quiet week. Tuesday was ring craft and Maja seems to have grasped 'the stack' Not quite four feet in all corners yet but that can now be fine tuned (hopefully!)
They all continue to play on walks and at home. One of Maja's favourite pastimes on a walk is to wait for Hamish at the side of the track and then ambush him. Hamish knows exactly what is going to happen but seems to go along with it all.
Maja continues to grow at an alarming rate - only she doesn't seem to think so as she still seems to be under the false illusion that she fits Hamish's bed!
Around the house and in the woods the bluebells are out forming the most beautiful blue carpet.
Maja continues to have her funny moments. Whenever I am out in the garden or on the laptop, if she is asleep she will check up on me periodically, have a cuddle and the go back off to sleep. Another trait is to pinch my jumper and lie down and sleep on it. She is also very vocal, especially when playing with the other two. She emits a high pitched trill like noise which Catharina aptly described as her canary noises!
Both Maja and Hamish continue to help in the garden!
although Hamish has been otherwise occupied over the past few days. He has been on constant patrol outside around the barns. He is a persevering little fellow and if he thinks there is something about he will not give up. We thought it was probably mice, or worse rats, at first then we heard strange grumbling noises coming from the roof space. And then we saw a little face peeking out - we have pine martens!
We presume they have a nest up there and so far have disposed onto the barn floor, a mouse, a well eaten young jackdaw and the tail and not much else of a red squirrel.
Kobe and Maja show very little interest!
