Early green gage & nibbled nutz

[Singeblister]

here's a couple of pics i snapped today , spotted some Hazel nuts a few days ago , went back to check today and the dam squirrels have scoffed most of them.
Also some green gages there are a lot on the floor at the moment we had some wind a couple of days back , but they are perfectly edible and quite sweet my daughter loves them , still cant get my Wife or youngest to try one though , they don't know what there missing :D
