October 7, 2020
Perhaps I should be spending my time eliminating the rose aphids instead of taking time to photograph them.

Odd Coronas
October 1, 2020
Did you know the trumpet part of a daffodil is also known as the corona? These poor daffodils might have a corona problem!
I like these even though they haven’t got the traditional trumpet shape associated with daffodils. The yellow ‘bits’, the coronas, are very disheveled. For more of my daffodils, click here.

Allowed out – at last
September 30, 2020
The easing of Covid restrictions saw us hop in the car to visit relatives, a 6 hour drive away to the coast. What a treat!!
On the way, we passed these rather odd hay bales. I guess they must have been for the Queen’s Birthday weekend. back in June. I haven’t been out since long before then. To see the farmer’s previous efforts in a past post click here.
Love the queen!
When we got there, the beach was quite deserted
Even the usually frantic beachside cafe was quiet.
And my better half was really enjoying the day!

Who’s drinking my beer?

Do beer traps eliminate snails in the garden?
“Fancy some strawberries for dinner tonight Herble?”
“Sounds great, but maybe we could have a snails for something different”
“Hmm maybe someone beat us to them.”
“Or maybe I know who has been drinking my beer.”‘
“Oh well, someone keeps leaving it around the garden. They’ll be more soon.”
