Plums and Wasps

 A red admiral butterfly resting on the wheelie bin box catching a few gentle sun rays. Friend has some burrowing wasps in his strawberry patch.  As it’s bang next to a plum tree  whose branches are loaded with plums and so many have dropped so the wasps are having a fine old time. But fortunately in a way the tree is right at the back of the garden . But not sure what he is going to do with the wasps .

Calling Card

 Children feeding the pigeons and ducks in the park all having fun, along came a dog and barked all of a sudden the  ducks ran and the pigeons all at the same time flew up and unfortunately some left their calling card, on some people !

A Bit Slower.

 The vintage bus drove under the canopy of trees in the lane. The sunlight managed to get through in some places to lighten the dark green of the canopy. Then came upon a patch of thistles swaying in the wind. Just like days gone by when life was a bit slower.

Butterflies and Bush

 The overgrown butterfly bush has quite a few butterflies on it . The contrast of the purple flowers and the butterflies  is striking. A quiet breezy day otherwise. Even the birds are quiet. Not seen the roof scaling magpie or heard it for a while .

Return

 The handsome dog fox has made a returned visit and he is as gorgeous as ever. He just looked at me said hello and went back to sleep. But it won’t be long and he be off on his travels again. Making the most of his company. It’s really a honour that he comes back every now and again.  Bless him.

Suppers

 Watching a heron watching the water for its supper. Two rarities,  on the drive home a bat flew across the car, and in the field a bit further down the lane in an other field an owl swoops down catching its supper.

Waltz

 Sitting watching the sunlight dancing across the small waves on the lake. It seems like the waves and the sun was dancing a waltz. 2 rooks playing chicken on the busy road. Mad they are .
