See you in the spring

Speedy, the tortoise, has been too quick for me. Before I could put him in a nice box in the shed, he made his own arrangements in the garden. Partly in case I need to find him before spring, here's where he went. (Lower left, where they soil looks crumbly.)



At the time, a couple of weeks ago, we were enjoying a warm sunny autumn and Speedy was still (relatively) frisky. Normally, if I put him in his box before November, he just tips it over and climbs out again, so I was amazed to find he'd put himself to bed in mid-October.

But seeing what the weather's been like the last couple of days, I reckon he knew what he was doing.

How clever of Speedy to know what the weather would be like. Down here in Devon we've had hail-stones settling in Ottery St Mary.
