Fairys and things in my water butt

13 comments

Well they are not really fairys but they were so delicate blowing around changing shapes all the time as the wind blew,the shadows moved constantly and the larva in the water surfaced stayed a while then dropped back down.It seemed strange that they all fell face down.

The plants are about 5ft high now and seed themselves in and around the path
and have been doing this for a number of years they are close to my fern garden and look really bright against the back drop of my tree fern

I am pleased with the way the tree fern has recovered it was none to pleased with the cold of last winter

You will notice i have kept the camera up from the ground ,there are to many weeds for you to be allowed to see down there.

lovely and reminds me of the blossom ballet in Disneys Fantasia. There is a series of them over the year my favourites being the autumn and winter. i wonder which music it was, possibly vivaldi's 4 seasons. I will see if i can dig it out for a viewing later in the week.
