Igen i dag arbejdede Uglemor i haven. Ugleungerne hjalp efter bedste evne; de er stadig slatne, sårede osv., men på bedrings vej, og det samme gælder Skribenten.
Bedene fik de sidste kanter. Det går så meget lettere, når man er to om det.

Once again MotherOwl worked in the garden. The Owlets did their best. They're still weak and wounded, but getting better every day, the same goes for the Writer.
The beds had their frames finished, it is so much easier with four hands.
Piraten og Uglemor flyttede buen som bønnerne skal gro op ad, hen i det rigtige bed.

The Pirate and MotherOwl moved the supporting arch for beans to the right bed.
Af rester fra kanterne lavede Uglemor en hylde til blomster under Mariarelieffet, der også blev vasket i dagens anledning.
Ugleungerne ryddede alle de gamle pinde, planker og havareret legetøj væk fra nedenunder. Det endte med at se helt godt ud.

MotherOwl made a shelf out of scrap woods from the raised bed frames. After the Owlets cleared away years accumulations of nice sticks, maybe useful planks and plaything that had known better bays we hung the shelf underneath Virgin Mary. She also had a much needed cleaning.
Hver gang nogen bare tænker på at gå ud i haven, vågner hønsene op til dåd, og fortæller højlydt hvor sultne de er og hvor forsømte de føler sig.

As soon as somebody as much as thinks of going into the garden, the chicken gather by their door, loudly telling the whole world just how hungry and neglected hey are.
Haveuglen skuer fornøjet ud over sit rige fra den nye rede. Den har søreme fået besøg af en frø.

GardenOwl surveying its kingdom. And look; a frog has come visiting.
Nogle af de nye planter blomstrer allerede. Gad vide, om de virkelig har krudt til det?

Some of the new plants are already flowering. Will they carry any fruit?

| Arktisk hindbær -- Arctic raspberry |

| Hvid ribs -- white currant |
Stenene til HaveUglen rede kommer fra rabarberbedene, de skal have nye kanter. Der var også for mange skvalderkål i de bede.

The stones for GardenOwl's nest were mostly taken from the rhubarb beds. They were overrun ny ground elder. Now they need new frames.
Under sidste strejke begyndte Ugelungerne at
renovere legehuset. Men vi løb tør for både brædder og tid, da strejken blev ophævet. Nu er legehuset ved at rive sig selv ned. Det eneste, der kan genbruges, er skruerne, og dem henter Piraten så til Uglemor.

During the big lockout of 2013, the Owlets began renovating our
play house.But we ran out of materials and time when the lockout ended. Since then the house has been suffering rain and frost and sun without a good roof, it's time to say good bye. The screws are all best quality, and even the oldest ones are still perfectly useable. The Pirate unscrews them and brings all the still useable ones to MotherOwl, who uses them for the new raised beds.
I dag gjorde Uglemor en hel del ting for første gang i år. Den første høst fra haven: Brændenældeblade.
De behøver ingen særlig pleje for at bære gro og formere sig. Men de smager godt i brød og pizzaer.

Today was a day of firsts of the year. First harvest: Nettle leaves.
These well known plants need no encouragement to grow and be prolific. They are a tasty addition to our bread and pizzas.
Uglemor hentede bue og pile og tog årets første skydetræning. Alle pilene ramte i hvert fald halmballen.
Den tredje først ting er ikke rar. Uglemor klaskede årets første hveps. Øv, de er fremme igen.

MotherOwl also fetched bow and arrow and had the first shooting practise of the year. At least all arrows hit the straw bale.
The third first thing is of a nastier variety. MotherOwl killed the first wasp of the year.
