The Evil Eye

Today was a incredibly warm sunny day without a cloud in the sky. I spent the day at The Hawking Centre in Kent flying various amazing birds of prey. It was a truly wonderful experience to be handling the birds and even being able to stroke them. I took so many photo's it was hard to choose a favourite.

Pretty but Poisonous

I was hoping to find a sample of the fly agaric along our woodland walk today. Just when I had given up hope we spotted a few destroyed mushrooms along the path and then by doing a little 'house keeping' managed to find this one intact if not a little nibbled.

It's a Bugs Life

Although a rather pretty insect the harlequin ladybird is not native to Britain. It is now the most widespread ladybird species on the continent and is potentially threatening our many native ladybirds.

Solus Pear

My new pear tree produced just the one pear. However, it was very tasty!

A Picnic for Two

A Sunday morning trip to RHS Wisley. The sun shone as we strolled amongst the sculptures and the annual flower show. Lot's of beautiful things to admire, get ideas from and perhaps even purchase!

Rich Autumn colours

And so the Horse Chestnut trees have begun distributing their seeds. A sure sign that Autumn is on it's way.
