SUNDAY THOUGHT - Open Arms Orphanage Malawi

Jesus called the children to him and said,

“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 

Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”

Luke 18: 16 & 17

SATURDAY CRITTERS

Nearly all this week for the past few days I have shown you the birds that I came across on my early morning walks in Ward Park which is 2 minutes from my home, however I often also see Grey Squirrels and at present they are madly collecting nuts to store always for the winter. 

I am linking to Saturday Critters.

Perhaps next week I will show you the birds I see when I walk down to the sea and along the sea front.
