Odds and ends in and around the garden.

Sunday tends to be a bad day for a walk around the lanes: people are creatures of habit and seem to do their jogging / dogging / cycling etc over the weekend. For this reason Linda and I stayed home: I made up some meteorite orders and cooked a veggie Wellington, Linda continued stripping wallpaper in the hall!

We did both some time in the garden however (critical period for the bees!) and were pleased to have the company of a Coal Tit much of the day. Also, three Swifts (and the usual Buzzards) drifted overhead: no Hobby yet, though! Have you ever seen such a large amount of pollen on one Bumble Bee? Incredibly industrious!
