It's good to get the chance to write a monthly report that isn't just walks and pictures from the OX3 postcode. I am very grateful for the variety of green spaces and choice of walks around the Oxford house - but there aren't any lighthouses, auks or sea views.
- Reporting Days: 31 (including 2 Bank Holidays, which make very little difference to what I'm doing)
- Location: Mostly Shetland (ZE3)
- Miles walked: 132
- Mile driven: 1159
- Gardens Tended: 3
- Puffins Seen: Hundreds
- Photographs Taken: Thousands (mostly auks, or lighthouses or auks at lighthouses)
- Vaccinations Received: One (now fully AstraZeneca'ed)
- Cat Count: Zero. Koop appeared in last months report - but sadly at the fine age of 22, the months finally caught up with her. It seems very strange not to have her pottering around the garden with us.
