got excited when it finally rained last week. Dashed out to see the raindrops on the flowers. Nice to be seeing roosting butterflies on evening strolls. Seeds and seed heads are throwing some amazing shapes too.

Ahhhhh and relax. A walk in the dappled light beneath a canopy of dancing green leaves. Cooler here as the sun beat down on Saturday. Thanks

Wow, how long are those antennae compared to the main body of the moth! Yellow Barred Longhorn Moth, I believe.

I was excited that there might be some raindrops on the garden
#dandelion
clocks. Found this
#bumblebee
taking shelter. Serious bedhead at one stage. Looked so cosy! After a while it was happily off amongst the flowers being a busy 🐝.

Dandelion - not a weed, but a wild flower providing an early source of nectar for bees and butterflies.

Ah yes it's time for

happy days. These are all from my garden,
#wildflowers
grow alongside cultivars, and all manner of
#insects
appear which are currently feeding the birds. Quite a few fledglings hiding in the rapid green growth.

aplenty of course 😄

So much to see on a sunset wander around a lake. My 1st damselflies of the year and the geese following and almost tripping me up to see what I was looking at added to the fun.
