Ⓐ - Ⓩ 12. april - Ⓛ - Lagener

Ⓛ er for lagener.
     Da Uglemor gik ud for at lukke hønsene for natten og tage et billede til dagens A-Z udfordring (Det skulle have været L for Leg), så hun spredte snefnug! Efter at have konsulteret Bedre vejr
hvor der blev lovet helt ned til tre graders nattefrost, fandt hun i hast en masse gamle lagener og håndklæder frem fra Uglehulen. Heldigvis ligger der stadig nogen og venter på at blive revet i strimler.
     Hjulpet af Piraten draperede hun lagenerne over Ugleboets bærbuske. Nu håber Uglemor at det forbliver vindstille og ikke for meget frost i nat. Vi vil gerne have ribs, solbær og stikkelsbær i Ugleboet til sommer.

Ⓛ er for lagener = sheets.
  This evening, when MotherOwl ventured out into the garden to close the chicken coop for the night and to snap a photo for today's A-Z Challenge (it should have been L for Leg = Play), she was hit by a snowflake. A closer look revealed more snowflakes silently drifting downwards. After consulting the meteorological service Bedre vejr (the name means Better Weather) that promised us frost tonight, she asked The Pirate for help. Together they found old sheets to be woven into rag rugs, but not yet torn into strips and a couple of old towels, and went into the twilight garden to drape the berry bushes. Now we hope for a night without wind and with not too much frost. We would like red and black currants and gooseberries in the Owlery this summer, please.

     Tusmørket er allerede fremskredet, og min blizt er stået af for et stykke tid siden.

A somewhat blurred photo of the fruit bushes covered in sheets and looking a little like tired ghosts composing themselves for sleep.
It was already semi-dark, and the flash in my camera stopped functioning a while ago.

  1. I do hope that putting the berry bushes to bed for the night works. There is very little which tastes better than berries fresh from the bush/vine.

  2. "Tired ghosts composing themselves for sleep" - a wonderful description. I hope your bushes are safe. It's fortunate that you had to be outdoors with the chickens, and saw the danger to the plants.

  5. now that is a good way to keep the berries and whatnot out of the weather. I have heard people use plastic sheets for cover, like raincoats for plants but I don't know.

    have a lovely day.

    1. I have no idea why you would want to keep rain away from plants. Sounds very strange to me. It looks like my berries survived the frost.
