Activity in the garden has been mainly limited to the flora, with
plenty of growth in many plants including the cauliflower and broad beans.
There has been a favourite sight this week with a visit from a couple
of newly fledged robin chicks.
They spent quite a while in the garden, watching from various posts and
pouncing on the odd invertebrate.
Apart from the off visit from blue tit chicks and flocks of house
sparrows, the main visitors have been swooping swallows.
It’s great to see and hear them, particularly the newly fledged
youngsters who are constantly chattering to the adults as they chase their
insect food.
Sadly they’ll all be gone in a few months and the slow process of
summer turning into autumn will begin.
Until then we can enjoy them and hopefully some summer sunshine, which
has been particularly lacking following a thoroughly wet June.
