Good photo Bloomer. We had a Peacock butterfly resting on the birdbath and it seemed to be enjoying the warmth from the sun. Their colouring is fantastic.

Thank you Neellan and Chris..my favourite Butterfly now..I'm sure it didn't stay long on that uncomfortable gravel :o)

Thanks Lindak,you can almost feel them enjoying the warmth,can't you? ..My bird bath seems to be out of favour lately with anything apart from the odd Bee floundering..which I'm glad to say I saw them in time..so scooped them out ..aah :o)

Gerry made our bird bath from two pieces of stone. The centre was a grindstone, we found both bits on the land when we had the smallholding.

We had those flying ants a couple of weeks ago,Shirley..just awful ,aren't they..? lots of the little ants trying to get over the doorstep too..no chance!..they suffered the same fate as your snails..double foot stamp remedy ! Lol ..
