| Do they only change colour during the mating season, or as they become mature? |

 Like that Henry.
I haven't been out in the garden much lately, but think the daffodils are starting to come through in the front of the house at least. A few new primrose leaves in the woods ... |

I think I will believe you are retired when you act ... |

That could well be positive enough Gregotyn.  A number of our coppice workers are in their 80s and still going strong with a 'strong lad' usually in his 50s or 60s to do the heavy work.
We had ... |

Sadly that bit of top was too bad even for a sun shade and no way of getting it to close.
Getting small quantities of things like nuts and bolts is expensive, so any odd ones you can pick out the ... |

Apart from pigeons and the odd rook, haven't seen too much of interest in the garden. We went into town yesterday ... |
