It's a rainy dull and dreary Bank Holiday Sunday so here are a few photos to brighten your day! These were taken in my garden during the week, although it wasn't sunny it was lovely and bright.
Happy Bank Holiday Weekend whatever you are up to! xx

In an English Urban garden
Here are a few of the inhabitants of our garden. We love animals and all of Creation so we don't use any chemicals or other poisonous substances and we have various areas of chopped branches and other havens for small creatures and birds.
This means we do land up with loads to see just outside when gardens around us are fairly devoid of creatures, if more manicured.
We always wondered why this feeder got emptied yet we never saw any birds on it - culprits have been found and captured on camera! Can anyone identify this character?
I am scared of spiders and even felt brave taking a picture of these - I couldn't bring myself to get closer for a macro shot although the markings are beautiful. I admire their dexterity, shape and form and yet they send shivers down my spine.

My fave is bumblebees
but here are 2 other insects I captured

The birds are of course an endless delight and the cats spend hours watching them through the door - we call it Cat TV.


An English garden without a robin - unthinkable! So cute and friendly, they will even sit on your foot or spade if you are digging up their fave worms - I haven't yet managed to be digging, have a robin on my foot and take a pic so this little guy is eating some of the bread and seeds we throw out daily
Last but not least Mr Greedy!
