What's the nicest thing you can see from your house?

[BarrelOfOtters]

The flowering cherry tree I planted 2 years ago in the front garden. Prunus autumnalis...its been flowering since November.

The Dublin mountains (from the top of the house)

Some local hills which had a promentary fort on hundreds of years ago.

We have beautiful mountain views and scenery but the bird feeder is my nicest view (today I had blue tits and they were so pretty)

Great sheep intel. I had absolutely no idea sheep could get stuck like this. I shall be more vigilant when passing sheep and step in responsibly if required. Life skill gained. Thank you.

The village saxon church and the hills in the distance

@TellSomeoneElse How do they end up on their backs ? Do they spontaneously flip themselves over ? I like sheep.

Not a problem at all, thank you for asking! 🐑

The sea

Sort of I guess! Particularly this time of year as the sheep are heavily pregnant, they can overbalance and fall, which can lead to them becoming cast. Another issue of this time of year is that their fleece is at its fullest, or getting that way, and can become very heavy due to getting wet in this lovely damp weather, that can lead to issues with balance too.

@TellSomeoneElse Awww, bless them, I'll be extra vigilant when I next see them, I'll be ready to spring into action and roll it back. over.

I notice only people with lovely views have posted 😬

Don’t know whether to laugh or cry!

The daft things will certainly appreciate it 😊 can’t tell you how much we appreciate people taking on board and acting on this sort of information about livestock, so thank you.

I love how this thread is leading people to feel gratitude 💕

Kangaroos in the early mornings and evenings, most I’ve seen is 14 in the field next to our house.

I live in the middle suburbs of a capital city but we have an acre block and are adjacent to a council owned nature corridor.

Snap!

A 14th century Church on top of a leafy hill. Unfortunately there's a 1960s built primary schools in the foreground 😆

Kids playing out. Proper old school calling for each other and playing out on the street. And off onto neighbouring streets and parks too.

I’m so glad my kids had this when they were growing up.

Birdfeeder, visited by blue tits, great tits, robins, sparrows, etc.
When in bloom, lilac bush with red rose bush intertwined.

Sunsets from March to October right from my bedroom window going down over the fields. Love it, so beautiful. My biggest fear is they will build new houses over those fields one day.

All the fields and the sheep.

At the moment, sheep are grazing in the fields in front of & behind the house, and we have a lovely view over farmland to the hills.
In a few weeks, it'll change from sheep to dairy cows doing the grazing.
We absolutely love it here.

I'm blessed to have an old church and duckpond in the next field and no visible neighbours in any direction.

The sea, a fairground, an island (holm?) with a lighthouse ♥️

that sounds heavenly
