I saw my first two Fly Agaric fungi of the year yesterday, and the berries on my red berried Rowan are getting quite red, there was a young Blackbird eating some this morning.
Regards, Audrey. |

No, no, Summer is here till it is gone. I dread Winter, though I like Autumn, so lets enjoy the trees in full leaf, the butterflies and the whole Summer that we have. Try me again at the end of August.

Fresher feel to the early morning now.Cob nuts very visible on the tree.Blackbirds stripping the Rowan.Blue tits/green finches back on the feeder. Tomatoes taking time to redden.Leaves of the maple have been falling on the lawn for a couple of weeks now.Shadows are getting longer.Putting on of the trousers most nights now though still wearing shorts daytime.
Ps. Is that snow goggles that Kayleigh is wearing on the nice new pic.....
