On Lammas eve there were at least twenty swifts squeeling and wheeling in the sky around our house getting ready to leave for the winter. They arrive around Beltane and leave around Lammas. I love to watch them, there is a wildness about them that always makes me feel excited, apparently they even sleep on the wing.
Here are some beautiful Hydrangeas from my daughter's garden, they are flowering all over Cornwall at the moment.
and some beetroot we grew in our allotment, well mostly my husband as he does most of the hard work, I do the harvesting and eating!
I will take some photos there next time I go there
