Hoverflies like balsam too and other garden snippets


Devil's-bit Scabious in flower on the front bank

Devil's-bit Scabious in the shade of a downy birch tree just a few metres away, same day

Toad was worried when he saw how ruthlessly I had cut back the Vinca Major four weeks ago. He needn't have worried. It's growing back with a renewed determination to take over the terrace.

A den rose pruning from a year or two ago
that is growing out of the side of a compost heap

 The dance of the seeding bird's-foot trefoil

And a couple more bees' bums
