Stick towers

The first day of February was a good day to build stick towers in the woods.  We started with a square of sticks and just kept building squares of sticks on top.  The tower looks fantastic in the woods.  We pretended we were building a pyramid!  No treasure and no mummies but a staircase to the sun.  We shall build more and see just how high we reach.


















It was also a good day for throwing stones in puddles.

And we saw five beautiful deer race across the field in front of us.  The blackthorn trees have tiny blossom buds.  It won't be all that long before they are awash with white blossom!   Later in the day we even felt the sun so warm on our faces it tingled!

A good first day of February!
