Hot and Sunny

How things can change in a week.

Last weekend through to this Friday

it was hot and sunny then the

heavens opened all day yesterday and today

Last week I wondered round the garden with my camera

and just clicked and clicked

here are some of my pictures

This rose bush always reminds me of the

rose bush in Lewis Caroll's

Adventures of Alice in Wonderland

where the cards are painting the roses white

(or is it the other way round?)

The Alliums turning to seed

This noisy Blackbird hunting for the family tea


Jenson (next door's cat) on the prowl

Elderflower

The honey bee hunting for nectar

Culinary Lavender

Not sure what this flower is called

but I'm sure one of you kind people will

tell me what it is

Lovely bright red Geum

My lettuces which I am proud of

because the slugs and snails have usually

got to them first!

And......... this is what happens when you

leave the wax crayon in a very hot conservatory!

The tube is the cover of the crayon
