30 Days Wild Days June 2020 Days Twenty Five to Twenty Eight

Again very hot days followed by rain and storms have restricted what I was able to do.

Here are a few photos taken over those days. 


Empty Dragonfly larva case amongst the pond weed.  Lots of newts, young ones too, but too quick and wriggly to take photos of.  Lots of tiny white moths flying just above the surface of the pond.

 The berries have ripened on the Amelanchier tree and  the blackbirds have been gathering in the tree to eat them.

The wood pigeons have now discovered the berries on the Amelanchier tree.  They are rather too heavy for its delicate branches and lots of flapping and flopping can be heard.  Herring gulls have been coming down into the garden.  We had three one day.  This one sat on the fence for ages before flying away.  It didn't seem to mind the pigeons in the tree.

 A short walk along the High Peak Trail

 Such a long time since we had walked here

 Over three months since we'd gone further afield for a walk.

 A new sign had appeared since we were last there

There were lots of Red Campion flowers around.
