We have finally been rewarded with some 'rain free' time to get out and get a grip on the garden. It has been another wet week and the only high spot has been the realisation that the swallows in our pig cott appear to have had a second brood. The garden is alive with swirling hoards of swallows - at times it's almost been overwhelming. They are everywhere. A friend called yesterday and tried to count them all, giving up after she got to 20. They're all lined up on my rooftop or the telegraph wire in the field next door - perhaps getting ready to head off but it's a bit early yet. If only I could get the sense of numbers and speed on film - but they are faster than my camera every time and I have a lot of open sky shots that are not that exciting to look at!
Getting out in my garden shows that the current dominant colour at the moment is yellow. Not everyone's favourite but the sunnier weather shows it off to perfection. Just thought I'd show a few bright spots in an otherwise gloomy, wet week here.
