Such glorious photos, I love the blue of the buddlia. Do you spend hours every evening watering in this blistering heat?
I noticed to day that there was a queue at the birdbath, I had filled it a bit too full for the sparrows but they were enjoying having a shower from a couple of starlings!!
Hey Birdwoman I see you've been bitten by the bug bug too;-}!
We put the sprinkler on once a week, anon, and a bit more often if things are starting to wilt!
Hi Andy! Yep, I'm exploring the bugs. Not sure I can do the spiders though. In fact, I know I can't! It's good to have something else to look for while the birds are on their holidays!
That's alot more bees than I have seen in my garden. I was just lamenting the other day on the lack of them.
Great pics of yours though and the flowers too.
