Rogart: 5.45am. Cuckoo starting to get a bit monotonous. A couple of swallows circle close by. I wonder if they are the inhabitants of the ruin? It’s grey & still. The blanket of cloud is rumpled, indistinct & blurring land in the distance. There’s a heavy dew… Time for tea.
Rogart: A sunspot on the big house from earlier. Dark now. Cat was bat watching by the ruin. I've just had to track down & catch Mrs Duck. Running around the croft in my pyjamas & wellies with a torch. Clearly she's forgotten the grisly fate the rest of her family met by fox...
Rogart: The grey has lifted & we have almost blue skies. The ash buds are bursting. I still find it surprising to see what emerges from such minimalist nobbled twigs. By the railway, the first bluebells are flowering, as are the violets. Also stitchwort & vetch arrangements…
Rogart: No lambs today, though that has probably blown it & someone will be thinking of starting at bedtime. (I'll add in the word "yet"). There was a brief spell of sunshine. Aspens were chattering. Marsh marigolds are brightening ditches. Bird planted rowan trees are coming up.
Rogart: 5.40am. Another still & grey morning. Hazy with low cloud. Greener though, after yesterday’s rain. Walking to check the ewes I met one cat. We exchanged greetings. All is quiet. Lots of birdsong & a solitary truck coming up the bottom road, headlights on. Time for tea…
Rogart: Lambing has begun. Pale Katmoget Shetland has a whopping ewe lamb. Looks just like her Pa. (We used a neighbour’s Cheviot tup lambs). She’s straight up on her feet & having a feed. I didn’t have to do anything except give her a speedy check & iodine her navel. Perfect...
Rogart: 5.30am. Lambing could start today so I’m out on the first check. It’s grey & cloudy. All is quiet in the park, though the birds are very noisy in the strath. It’s wonderful. So many lives carrying on around us. The old, wind bent rowan is putting forth flowers again...
Rogart: The sunlight left us. It's grey & hazy, as a consequence, daisies shut up shop early. However, yellow willows have flamboyant & cheerful catkins. I found some oak galls in a drawer & with the addition of an iron nail from the ruin & vinegar, made some ink for doodling...
Rogart: 7am. What a morning… With all of the stuff crammed into it that (thankfully) your brain lets you mostly forget about in winter (a kindness). It’s already warm. The ewes are huffing & full of lambs. Except for willows, trees don’t yet have enough leaves to provide shade.
Rogart: There's a sail shaped bank of clouds covering up the blue sky...
Rogart: 6.50am. There’s a cuckoo in the top of the ash tree. Broadcasting its bad intent in a far carrying mellow voice. It’s a still morning. With a heavy dew. Cats are leaving dark footprints on pale paving. It will be a good day for outside jobs. For now, it’s time for tea…
Rogart: 9.20pm. Pink sky. Thrushes talking. Goodnight.
Rogart: 7am. Hazy & sunny. Birdsong turned up to 11. Cuckoos in multiple places. House martins & swallows swooping by, though ‘ours’ haven’t come back to the ruin yet. Young trees are becoming less like naked sticks every day, their green summer clothes are coming along nicely…
Rogart: It has been such a lovely day that I managed to not mind wrangling electric fences for a lot of it. Down by the railway, celandines. Wood anemones are popping up where bluebells will be. The first cuckoo flower is almost open. A pair of cuckoos flew over my head today...
Rogart: May Day. As I dropped off the gardener, there was a haar by the sea & it was much cooler. Here it is warm & still. There’s a heavy dew that requires wellies as it soaks boots. Daffodils are mainly over, but some perfect examples remain. Willow warblers are loud & busy…
Rogart: 10 degrees. Blue skies & willows. Windows catching sunlight & mirroring it back. Mrs Duck is looking a bit better this morning. She’s still quiet & sad. I’m not surprised. Her two friends were killed by a fox. Postie has gone out on his round today enquiring about ducks.
Rogart: A warm morning. Bees were buzzing about the blackcurrant bushes. Puffballs were puffing. Ewes are in the far hay park. Lambing starts in a week. Brillo Pad is the tallest sheep we have & is starting to look like the widest. Naughty says she couldn't possibly comment...
Rogart: 6am. Chilly. Heavy dew. Ice on windscreens. Brisk breeze from the west. Lovely when the sun comes out. Grouse on the hill. Two cuckoos somewhere close. I keep hoping to hear ducks. It’s so quiet without them. Only one came home from wherever they had been yesterday…
Rogart: A busy & cold day. Lots of showers. Heavy enough to leave swirling patterns of sawdust behind them as the water ran downhill. Also, we picked up two new arrivals. Female large black piglets. Wingusina & Dingusina. They got out of the trailer & began grazing straight away.
Rogart: Two pictures an hour apart. There are heavy showers roaming the land. Very localised. Dumping vast quantities of rain or hail. Leading to the apparition of puddles, overflowing ditches, or what look like small, slightly out of season snowdrifts. Best avoided if possible.

@rossalcroft Just heard the cuckoo for the first time this year on a calm, sunny evening with our neighbour’s lambs becoming a bit more adventurous on the croft.
@rossalcroft Beautiful. It's been grey and misty all day here in Tayside. Beautiful in its own way of course but sunshine is better. 🙂
