Maximum temperature 16C, minimum 10C.  6km/h NW winds, 24km/h gusts. Dry
Bergenia Cordifolia, 

Bumblebee on the lavender which I have never seen flowering so late in the year!

As above.

Catkins still on the hazel nut tree, note the fluff from the pampas.

Coriander flower.

Cotoneaster berries.

Lawn daisy plus fly...

As above but note the little bug as well!

Marigolds.

Climbing rose.

Viburnum - I have never noticed the perfume from this before but it was remarkably strong today.

Viola.

Zinnia with traces of the pampas as well.

Sparrow love at first sight.

Fish pie before going in the oven.  Sorry I wanted to finish the blog before dinner!!

  6. Lovely to still see flowers. Actually there are a few here in Berta's yard. I should take photos. I told her you have some of the same flowers we see here and she was as surprised as I.
