The busy natural world.

This is a lovely time of year.  The wood is  brimming over with wildflowers, bees, birds and insects.  Not so many butterflies about this year, Lots of Hover Flies and other flying beasties.

 The logs that can be used as an outside classroom, have been  tipped over. Let's hope that this will be the only thoughtless prank during long  summer evenings!

Teasel flower heads in the sunset.
After heaving the logs back into their original upright position, I took this photo ofa very prickly teasel plant. I wonder why?
