Once Upon a Time……….

On a roll with themes for the quiz-I was worried I was drying up. Today’s title will give you a clue for the quiz at the end of the blog.

Had a wonderful ride for today’s exercise got me thinking what is the collective noun for Primroses possibly a profusion? Saw a few Bluebells as well I hope we will still be allowed out when they really explode everywhere.

Garden Bird update-Chiffchaff, two Sparrowhawks up high possibly male and female and House Martin briefly over.

Yesterday’s small, tiny miniscule little answers were

a) Vatican City is the smallest country   b) Mercury is the smallest planet   c) Rhode Island the smallest US State  d) The Bee Humming Bird is the smallest bird it is only found on Cuba–you had to get Bee because there are many species of Hummingbird !  e) Dwarf Sperm Whale is the smallest Whale (I had to look that one up!)

To mark our first  Beer and Books virtual meeting tonight I thought we ought to have a literary theme! Literary themes may  pop up from time to time so today’s quiz is all on Children’s Literature I don’t think it is that hard!

a) What did the Very Hungry Caterpillar eat on Friday?    b) Who illustrated the Gruffalo?  c) Who befriended Stig of the Dump?  d) What is the name of War Horse and who was his human friend? e) Who did the Iron Man by Ted Hughes have to fight?
