Hot.

It has been very hot today and tomorrow even hotter. The wildlife have been very quiet not even seen any birds. Just saw midges at dusk. Even my cats don't like the heat.

Very Hot Weather.

They say that Wednesday is going to be the hottest day about 35c wow! So please take care and try and stay cool. Plus also thunderstorms are supposed to be coming in as well.

Shimmering and Hazy.

A shimmering moon with what looks like a hazy rainbow around it. A crow visited the roof opposite and was displaying his wings and he was having a good look around. A very cool breezy morning , there is a smell and feel of rain in the air.

Bats.

A navy blue evening sky at dusk then all of  a sudden a deep rosy pink sunset. A sight I don't see to often which is a shame seeing bats flying around. Just lovely to stand quietly and watch them, they are so graceful.

Foxes and Noise.

A overcast morning nice and cool. Heard the foxes last night there was more than one, the noise they made was quite deafening so eerie.
The pigeons continue to strut their stuff on the roofs opposite.
Now the sun is beginning to peek through the clouds.

Bees and Ants.

A hazy sunny sort of a day but very warm. The bees are buzzing about their business. They are still with me being busy as usual.

Slug And Snail Dance.

Finally bought myself a book on wild flowers, so when I am out and about I can identify them, I know quite a few but it's nice to be identify all I see.
Back to a grey morning and rain, but the rain is much needed.
The pink geraniums have flowered again giving a good show. My rose I thought last year has grown and flowered well again which I am pleased about.
All ready I am thinking about what to do for next year in the garden.
At the moment it is going to be the slug and snail dance up the garden path. To be honest not seen a lot at the moment. I hate treading on them so I look very carefully and sort of tiptoe up the path to avoid them.

Orange sunset.

An orange sunset against a dark grey sky then the rain hit big time.

Sunny Then Grey.

Such a beautiful sunny early morning then a really huge grey cloud came over. Hopefully the rain will hold till I cut the hedge it's not a big hedge so it won't take long to cut. And I did remember to but the battery on charge.

Some Grass Left.

Mowed the lawn front and back. While doing the back lawn I came across the dead pigeon, I thought the fox has taken it.
Forgot to put on the charger for the hedge clipper, so note to oneself put the charger on so it be ready in the morning.
I left a bit of long grass in the front as there was some ladybirds in it. Also looks like the ants have gone.

Here comes summer?

Here comes summer, I think, I am a bit afraid to say it's here, but the sky is blue the sun is out, a mixture of white and grey clouds an even mixture of both. It's a bit chilly in the morning and it was last night. But it promises to be a nice day.

Birds.

Found the remains of a dead pigeon in the back garden so the fox is still about. Startled a blackbird as I was passing by he had a beak full of worms, also saw a thrush looking for snails I have got plenty in the back garden.

Over cast.

Overcast and humid waiting for the thunderstorms to come as promised by the weathermen. Rabbits in the grass verges having brunch.

Topsy Turvey.

Enjoying this topsy turvey weather we just been having. Having a really hot day, then the next day a cold winter like day , you don't what to put on summer or winter clothes is the question.
The birds,snails and slugs insects to are all ok, the Robin has been very quiet but he is still about, you feel his eyes on you when you go past his tree.

Pheasant Family.

Saw a pheasant family out walking in the late afternoon sunshine, so sweet. And hay is being made nice to see that as well. To top it all saw stunning views whilst out all this under a beautiful blue and sunny sky. Bliss!

Quite Quiet

Done quite a bit in the garden.
The snails and slugs are still with me. The Robin had been quiet lately but he is still with me. Loads of insects around especially midges. The fox no sign of.
Expecting thunderstorms today proves its summer.

Rain tried to stop cutting.

Cut the front lawn before the rain started. Still got the ant nest but left it alone as I am sure that I leave the ants alone they don't come in the house.
Had a week away to a completely different landscape, shingles and sea, and the wonderful wildlife it had to offer, mainly wildflowers, now to identify the flowers from the photos.
