Good to see a few wild flowers still alive for the bees. Even most of the weeds seem to have died off in the heatwave here.

How nice it would be to wake in the night and hear some raindrops clattering down on the roof tiles !

I always like the flowers but not the rest so not allowed on the plot. However vacant plots allow me to see them. I've only seen a pink one once though. Another brilliant pic - thank you Tiger!

So beautiful. I like their fur. Do you know what this bird's favorite food is? And is there a way for me to attract them to my backyard?

Quite beautiful if you discount the bacterial damage they can do by germ spreading!

We went Whale watching again, but it is too far out to photograph, this Grey Seal briefly popped up to say hello.
