I began this blog on October 1st 2013 when I was 6 months away from my 50th Birthday and wanted to daily record my year with the blog ending on September 30th 2014. Five years later as I approached 55 I repeated this. Now ten years after this all began as I prepare to reach my 60th birthday in 2024 once more a daily update beginning on October 1st 2023 and ending on 30th September 2024. It is a personal journey, which others may find mind-numbing!

October 22nd 2013
Mix bag of a day. Torrential rain, bright sunshine, half a day at work, half a day working at home. While working from home the mix of weather outside entertained me and in a break in the downpours, one of the collard doves I have resident in the garden sat on a streetlight in the lane behind the garden and took in a minute or two of sunshine. 50 years ago or so I'd not have seen this species in Somerset as they only arrived in the 1970's over here. Species come and species go, and on a day like this I'm quite happy to spend a minute or two watching this neat little bird.
