Group 7-day waking average?

A bit of a confessional 7.2 this morning. Note to self..."must do better", step away from the goodie shelf! 🙄

Hope all are well 🙂
 
Morning all, triple whammy for me, house special 5.2 again, I'd smile but if I move my face she'll know.

I'm off to see my geese (Mr and Mrs Pepperpot as named by my Godson) in a moment, I'm on gosling watch. They started out with three babies and now only have one (foxes most likely) so the concerned citizens of the area are keeping watch and providing food so they don't have to leave the nest as much. The year before last they had eleven goslings and it was lovely to see them trooping the colour every morning 🙂. The lady whose house backs on to the lake is feeding the foxes though, she considers it a distraction technique but I fear she's actually just attracting more little foxies 😱
 
Good morning everyone. Have fun with the geese KookyCat🙂 High most of the night but down to 6.0 when I woke up but dropped to 4.4 within an hour. Hoping that it won't drop further.

Hope you have a more settled day than the night appears to have been 🙂 Well done on the House Special KookyCat, I hope that Little Gosling grows up to be Big Fearsome Goose (where Foxy is concerned!) 🙂
 
Thank you Northerner - now 3.7🙄 But I'm going to keep on smiling🙂
 
Blimey AJ hope that's come up a little for you, just into the nice range would be perfect if the diabetes fairy is listening 🙂

Geese and gosling all fine today, master Pepperpot is coming along nicely, he looks like an actual goose except for his fluffy yellow feathers (I thought they might have adopted a duckling in error for a while). They will insist on walking in the middle of the road however, so I expect goose carnage every morning :(

There were three mallards blithely wandering into the main road this morning when I was out for my run - thankfully little traffic at 6 am! 🙂 Haven't seen many ducklings or cygnets as yet, they probably don't believe it's supposed to be summer!
 
Thanks KookyCat a few glugs of Lucozade, some homemade cheese straws and a taste of cake mixture eventually got me stable🙂
With regard to birds we live in a built up area but have a big garden (ex council house). We currently have two robins looking after their nest right next to our house and two pigeons doing the same in the tree two feet away🙂
 
Well, house special 5.2 again.....bit scared now, Patty if you're listening, don't do anything rash 😱

Just been for a quick nip out to the geese, gosling still present and correct. Although the duck trio (two males and a female) are suspiciously absent. Herons are in position as always. Today's goose watch is complete. AJ I live in an odd little place, very urban up one hill, very urban up the other, but lucky enough to have woodland and two small lakes to the rear. Which is good because my tiny house is pretty much a garden free zone and it doesn't feel like home without some greenery. Master Northerner if you encounter those ducks again today you must attempt to guide them to safety, I've made you the duck watcher.
 
Morning folks.🙂 9.3 here?!! Who knows.🙄

Lovely to hear about goslings and ducklings. We're on puppy watch here - four little cuties.🙂
 
Good morning 🙂 6.8 for me today.

KookCat - mallards, OK, swans - no way! There was a swan on the bridge a while back and me and another man tried to guide it back - impossible! 😱

Well done on the HS, good to hear of the continued vivacity of the gosling 🙂

Lake and woodland sound lovely. M thinks that he spotted an extra robin today so not sure if it is a baby. Very exciting.
 
Good morning 🙂 I'll join you on the new month House Special step KookyC, always welcome to see a 5.2 on my meter.

My pump had suspended basal for 3 hours in total at two times through the night so extra house points to my new pump for avoiding hypos 🙂

They're a mix - mum's a husky~Asturian mastiff (she's Bloden's mum) and dad is pure - enormous! - mastiff. I hope they all survive / are adopted. The owners have a bad track record when it comes to animals (not cruel, just a bit gormless).🙂
