17th July

I think there may be more than one family of Green woodpeckers in the garden. Tree sparrows are really active, watched young being fed on front fence. I need to find a bookshop where I can get a butterfly book, lots around I don't know. Temp topped 28c predicted that it will be higher by weekend.


Not a lot to report today so I thought I would show some maps of where we are and some photos taken near the gite.

View along the dead end lane where we walk the dogs 

Lovely old stump in hedgerow left to decompose and so will become a home to insects and fungi
