In my garden this morning, feasting on peanuts then onto my window feeder! Sadly, three months too late to get into my book, essential-teesdale.co.uk/. And we don't (didn't?!) have red squirrels in #Teesdale! @NorthPennAONB @ThisisDurham @bbcspringwatch @durhamwildlife

Soup of the day is lentil and spinach with chilli/garlic, coupled with a freshly-baked cheese scone - it’s a winner as a respite from Storm Dennis, which is making its presence felt in #Teesdale #NorthPenninesAONB @NorthPennAONB @ThisisDurham
