1st: The weather is changing - dry, sunny days are now being replaced with sunny showers and a bit of a drop in temperature. We welcome the rain and the spectacular skies obvioulsy but miss sitting outside and are also aware that our beloved swallows and martins will soon be off. We are really going to miss them.  |

2nd: September Colour It's September and there is plenty of colour to see around our land. Purple Loosestrife, Water Mint, Oxeye Daisy and Fox and Cubs - all of which are enormously valuable plants for our invertebrate life!! Purple Loosestrife loves wet areas and is great for long-tongued insects, such as brimstone butterflies, red-tailed bumblebees and elephant hawk-moths. We get all three here, though not in great numbers so hope as the plant spreads, that may change.     |
