On our walk up to the mountain, the girls noticed that one of the trees that just had a few buds on it last week, was covered in flowers. They were also delighted to spot a bee collecting pollen from one of the buds. Then they spotted another one, and another, until they realised that the tree was covered with bees. When they listened very carefully they called hear the buzzing of the bees too!
There was also a lot of discussion about the Lichen the girls spotted on the
trunk and branches of the tree.
But the highlight of the walk was the cat that accompanied us from his home, up the steps, down the hill and came paddling in the pond!!!
Can you spot the cat?
And home again...
One of the girls asked me whether his mother knows that he goes up to Mt St John without her.
I seriously doubt it!!!
An encounter with a friendly cat on our lovely mountain really was just fabulous.
