Hi everyone

In my last post I talked about my trail camera and how I set it up near a Badger set well turns out it might be abandoned but we got a couple of videos  of a rare duck called a Shelduck. Shelducks lay their eggs in burrows in the ground. We got some footage of one just checking if the old badger set was safe to lay it’s eggs in! cool right.

here is the video IMAG0025

We checked on RSPB.ORG UK and Shelducks are on the amber conservation [list which means their numbers are in decline but they are not yet at the highest risk of extinction] so we’re lucky to see one! especially as they normally live on mudflats and estates and we were up a big hill in a wood near Terregeles!

Here is more information about Shelducks and they have a very funny call which you can hear on this link https://www.rspb.org.uk/birds-and-wildlife/wildlife-guides/bird-a-z/shelduck/

We are now brainstorming ideas about where else we could place the camera…id like to find a badger, fox or deer. each time we have taken the camera up to this badger set we have seen some Roe dear near by.

See ya

Hi everyone!
Cleo here. Here is a picture of my completed Lego set that I received for my birthday

Here is a picture of my jumping spider 🙂

Lastly here is the recipe for my Dad’s really good cheesecake. He uses gluten free digestives as my Mum is gluten intolerant, but you can just use normal digestives.

Get a cake tin.

For the base: Melt butter and mix in crushed up digestive biscuits

Add a layer of either melted chocolate or for quickness chocolate spread.

If you use melted chocolate mix in some butter so it doesn’t go too hard

Let base set in the fridge

Top Layer:

2 cartons of cream cheese

1 small double cream

4 heaped table spoons of icing sugar

Mix altogether with a hand mixer until VERY thick

Add topping to base

Garnish with whatever you want

Suggestions:

-Chocolate chips

-Strawberries

-Sprinkles

-Kiwi

That’s all for today. I hope you are all okay and have fun!

Rory’s review of The Enormous Crocodile
Author : Roald Dahl
Favourite Character : Muggle-Wump
Why? : Because he’s a monkey
Favourite Part : When the Enormous Crocodile bites Trunky

Did you like how it ended? Yes, the ending was funny!
Overall thoughts on the book : The book was very good. I enjoyed it because of all the beautiful colours in the pictures. There was funny bits, for example when Trunky launched the crocodile in the air, that I really enjoyed.

Today my mummy did my hair for me and sprayed it red then she painted my nails sparkly gold. In the holidays, my second tooth came out. The tooth fairy left me a special Peter Rabbit coin. I am keeping it in my treasure box. I learned some colours in Spanish.  Mummy read Carbonel to me. Carbonel is a magic king of all the cats. My maths was hard today. My cat Ludo is getting better. I cleaned his cage while he was at the vets for xrays. The vets came and got him as we can’t go out. He came home to a lovely clean bedroom. He is allowed out for 20 minutes a day for hugs.  I have been baking for our neighbours. We were given an apple pie from the nice men next door.  I made Easter brack for Erin and another lady in the village.

Bye, see you tomorrow, love Tanith 💖❤💙💚

 

 

This is my miniature garden. 🤗

Hello,  what have you guys been up to. When I woke up I felt tired. The first thing a did today was Spanish. I use an app called duolingo. Then I read some of my book machine gunners. Next was project work. I’m doing a project about world war 2. It’s a power point about the causes of world war 2. After that I did English. I was doing quick writing about hiding the remote. Also I did spelling workout. Next was Maths I was working in a textbook level D. After I blog I’m going riding. We are just taking it easy because my pony had lamanitis but it wasn’t bad. Then we will be going on a walk. Next I will do some arts and crafts.  That is my day for you guys. Take care! By Orla

Hi

Ella here. Today I have been doing takeaway sums and telling the time. I wrote a story about Guinea pigs that I am going to get soon and then we planted a miniature garden. It has beetroot, pansy and micro cress.

We did some science making some crystal creations. It was good fun.
