Glorious weather. A wonderful swim in our outdoor pool at the Gym. A chance to catch up with friends. With the prospect of good tennis this afternoon. What's not to like :-)
I have every good intention of doing some serious cleaning upstairs today - but I keep putting it off. Too sunny to waste. I went over to Elford Hall Gardens again and spent a good hour just wandering with my camera. Dragonflies, damselflies, small tortoiseshells, ringlets, (a gatekeeper who would not settle), meadow brown, bees and even ladybirds (in short supply this year).
But I couldn't resist this skipper, lording it over the garden and posing nicely on one of the globes. (Is it a large or a small one, though ?)
