First hot days

And already a visitor to my “ garden”

A kind friend brought me a big bag of earth and so I was able to fill my window-boxes. Just one day later and already a beautiful bumble bee was investigating my newly-planted flowers. Welcome Buzzy one!

Perhaps a little too tall?

Seeds of sunflowers and sweet peas coming up
Got ambitious with a peony

Something tells me I won’t see any blooms until next year. Patience… the virtue of gardeners

Another gardener spotted

I went to visit my mother’s grave yesterday and found this chubby fellow munching on grass and flowers. He darted away when I called him on it!

In my park

Summer is with us. Just a short walk from the dreaded shopping centre! There are three big ponds and he can stalk majestically on the banks of each one or fly off to the great river not far away.
