Back to nature?
Went for a walk with the kids this afternoon. Where we went there were lots of butterflies and L3 in particular was enchanted. As we walked, I heard the chirruping sound of crickets. Stopped and called the children over to listen. They were very shy crickets as whenever we stood perfectly still to listen there was silence. It seemed that every time I started speaking the unmistakeable creaky chirping sound began again, but stopped whenever I went quiet to listen! Very frustrating.
It took a good five minutes of this before I suddenly worked out that it wasn't crickets I could hear at all.
It was the pendant of my birthday necklace from my mum, sliding slightly from side to side on its chain every time I made the slightest movement.
I don't think David Attenborough has got much to worry about...
