      • It is moments like this I wish I had a dash cam. Driving back from school run 7 red deer across the road. As soon as one crossed the next one went. I think they were full grown youngsters as they looked a bit stripey.

          It must be a good year for them, I've had one in my garden, as has a mate up the road. But more importantly, what are you doing with cucumbers at this time of year?
          Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made
          By singing-'Oh how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade,
          While better men than we go out and start their working lives
          At grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner-knives. ~ Rudyard Kipling

          • I've seen lots of Orange Tips this year on the Honesty. Apparently, they're one of the first butterflies to appear which do not overwinter as adults and a sign of spring.
            As for the cucumber, I always sow some in January and live in hope for a few months afterwards.

                          • Love it.
                            Stunning.
                            Feed the soil, not the plants.

                              • This terrifying and quite frankly ugly critter will very soon ( within the next 24 hours, at a guess as its already out of the water ) turn into a beautiful dragonfly.
