Dry for a change

 Cotoneaster - Cotoneaster horizontalis taken in the back yard, never seen a bird come near these berries though they are supposed to be edible for them, I must be feeding them too well.

 Honesty - Lunaria annua - I have spread this about so keep your eyes open for it.

Lungwort - Pulmonaria officinalis surprised to see this making fresh leaf.

 Meg doing her Springer thing of secretly keeping an eye on us.

 From being a pup she has kept us in sight,

Making sure we don't leave her behind.

Take Care.

Friday 7 May

Another good dry day for our walk, we did not get many photos.

Swan was quite restless but she did not get off the nest, she may have been turning the eggs. It should not be long now.

We had our dinner out and took some photos of the garden escapees.

Grape-hyacinth this is a survivor it seems to grow anywhere.

Honesty it had made it to the side of the car park so might be in the hedgerow nest year.

Did a bit of work in the garden after dinner.

Thyme-leaved Speedwell thriving amongst my pots, brought in on muddy boots.

Found this beautiful Spider on my Buddleia - it is a Green Orb Spider, very tiny.

Take Care.
