Disappearing Animals

Didn't have a camera today - the shots below were taken on 12 March - had I had a camera I could have shown you a hare in the field behind the wall, and a pair of common lizards basking in late afternoon sunshine on top of the wall. Wonder if they have been seen by the ecologists doing their survey work for Horizon?

The small lily is a rare garden escape which is still clinging on in the wild. There used to be a mass of them all along the wall - either they have died in the wet, or cold winters, or people have been stealing them to take home!
