Very warm day, slight breeze but temp' still close to 30c.
Other than weed the Rose border it was another lazy day in the garden watching mostly Leaf Cutter Bees and a Southern Hawker laying eggs in the pond.
Good to see Boyo, Ben and Anna. Always good to meet up for a catch up. Ben has grown somewhat, no longer a baby. For those of you new to my blog Doug (Boyo) is a good friend who has given me invaluable Wildlife help over the years and it is Doug who has inspired me in taking more interest in for instance the actions/plight of the Swifts.
