Sunday.

The colours of the flowers are lovely!!

Hi Dandanspond....the flowers everywhere are really colourful at the moment and the roses are just in bud ready to open. I have noticed large greenfly around so we have sprayed. I like to usually leave them for the birds but there are too many to cope with.

Everything is blooming lovely Linda you have a murmuration of Starlings :o))

Thanks Amy, just been outside to give them a watering as it looks as though we aren't getting any rain until Tuesday. Murmuration...more like a squabbling of Starlings....they get up to some mischief.....but funny to watch.

What a beautiful view love the Violas some pretty coloured plants to.

If you grow Malva Moschata Alba they attract Hoverflies
which feed on Green and Black Fly until 2nd week in Sept. Remember for next year.

Thanks Thrupennybit. Thanks for the info Dianne as I don't really like using any insecticide if I can help it.

Your welcome Lindak

Isn't it just a wonderful time of year Linda. I can now relax and be sure that winter is over. The trees all have their leaves, even the Ash is showing green at last, and everything is just bursting with energy and vigour. I love it! It's a little late this year, but still....:))

It truly is a magical time of year and everything is at its best. The countryside looks beautiful.
Love the pansies in your garden, a lovely photo of them.

Hi Ck. Your right, it's good that the weather is warmer now, although it's very windy today and dull. The hedgerows are bursting with wild flowers. We have just eaten our first courgette, and the plants are now outside. Gerry is going to put some supports I today for them.
Thanks Wildrose, I love it when everything starts to show colour.

You're so right about the weather HB I've just been out hoeing the front garden, It's amazing how many weeds are coming up at the moment. I made up a Squabbling of starlings as that's what they do....

Starlings always make me want to smile, funny birds....

Same here DD. They are such characters.

You do have some lovely colour in your garden Lindak and I agree the countryside is grand this year, I guess the mild wet winter has paid off and we are now appreciating it , I love the pic of the starlings, we used to have hundreds of them in the gardens and it was very noisy at this time of the year, I think I've only seen about a dozen so far this year, that happened a few years ago with the sparrows but they are back in their hundreds so hopefully the same will happen with the starlings....

Thanks Lin, the countryside around here has been amazing with the wild flowers and hedgerows in bloom. Sometimes if there is a Sparrow hawk around they deplete the small bird population, and the weather can affect the amount of babies that survive. We love the sparrows and they seem on the increase around here too.
