Hang in there!



Despite this appalling weather and all the doom and gloom being reported about how our British wildlife is suffering, a few creatures and flowers are still clinging on.  Undoubtedly things dont look as colourful, summery and full of life as they should at this time of year but if you look closely you can still find small pockets of splendour...

Common spotted orchid

Small tortoiseshell and Meadow brown (sharing, aah!)

Stinking iris

face full of buddleia
Pyramidal orchid

Red cardinals making whoopee

Emerald damselfly

So chin up, the little guys are battling through the monsoon, so can we!
