What happened I don't know, all I know is the alarm was set for 5.30am ready for a dawn walk. So why was it 9am before I woke up? Missed out on a good walk.
A fair few moths again last night, all a bit samey now, want some rare species coming my way. Today of course being sunny there were loads of bees particularly on the sunflowers and a good number of butterflies.
Foxy and mice were about but very few birds. Sparrows and goldfinches but not much else.
Day was spent clearing out the greenhouse of all the dead thistles that had self seeded during the year. Greenhouse not used this because of the time spent building the lodge/shed. All cleared out now ready for next spring. Will be used for tomatoes only.
