Just Quiet

It’s been very quiet here apart from seeing young foxes running about. A few good days of good weather then rain .
No sighting of the resident robin, he been quiet as well.
Patio door opened to get fresh air in the house and listening to the rain and it’s very chilly I think.
Ps. A huge thunderstorm so it’s not very quiet!

Snails again

Watching snails in the rain and noticed they move quite fast. A ladybird on a leaf on the pear tree and it looked quite contented.
Picked up some fallen plums , they have fruited early this year, but not heavily laden this year though.

Peacock Butterfly

Nearly trod on a peacock butterfly that was resting on the path. It’s been a long since I seen one close up.
The weather has turned hot very hot.

Teased

Next door cat trying to camouflage itself behind the bush , but didn’t do a good job the birds knew it was there and teased it by flying low over it . 

Very dark rain clouds are coming over just in time to rain when I leave for work! 

Gorgeous Combination

Went a different way in the car and the scenery was completely different green and flat then came the cornfields and poppies. The red poppies against the wheat corn etc such a gorgeous colour combination. 

A small tortoise bitterly came flying past Without a care in the world. 

A spider spinning a web from the beech tree as I walk past. So delicate but strong and deadly .

Where are the slugs?

Radishes and beetroot are going from strength to strength. Maybe I have got green fingers after all.
The robin family have now gone their separate way, going to miss them , but I still got the resident robin through thank goodness.
The front lawn now looks like a hay field, I think it looks nice but other people well they are entitled to think whatever they want, I have got far more important things to think about at the moment.
Yes I should do the lawn, but just lately every time I want to go and do it next door is out and starts telling me what I should do and what I am doing wrong. So I ignore him have to , at this moment in time I am on a very short fuse. But hopefully it will pass. And then I come in and slam the door. Childish I know but hey that’s life at the moment.
A snail came indoors to say hello, but I haven’t noticed any slugs at the moment and it’s been quite wet lately. Slugs where are you?
