Beautiful Yellow :)

Hehehe i see Henrys Tail LOL

Pretty combination, what's behind it?

What's a "scree" bed?

Oh, are those blooms gorgeous!!! Does Pyracantha grow in Zone 5?

Pretty, pretty, pretty.

i agree Spritz yours look good against the dark pansy

wow what a fabulous plant, i may have to go get one of those !!

Im sure there are naughty childrens versions etc and I expect some of them are really funny. As you say Spritz-the things we had to put a up with in the classroom....but it made our lives so much richer and instilled a sense of fun and humour.(Here I go again down memory lane!!!)
Anyway, its great that we can share some of the fun on this site as well. I will make sure my voice is in tune when we meet.
Best wishes,
Grenville.

Yes, it's a problem. You can't explain it to them. Blodyn chases all sorts of insects and I'm afraid of her being stung like you with Henry. Blodyn will sit and watch a spider for ages. It's as if nothing else in the world exists for her except that spider. Then she will eat it.

Is it possible that Bugs Bunny has been commissioned by the Ministry of Transport to excavate a new underground motorway link between Somerset and Bristol Spritz? You know what the M5 is like between Somerset and Bristol on occasions!.
It must be so annoying - Leave a little sign informing him/her that accommodation fees plus B.A.T.
(Bunny. Added. Tax ) on a daily rate will be charged if it
re-appears!
Please give us an update.

Now he IS a pest, not like the grasshopper ! (Sorry about that. Hope you read my other message. )

SORRY !! I didn't read the description of the photo. I thought it was a greenfly. That's what happens when there are so many to see and I seem to rush through them sometimes. I think if I took more time, which I would like to do in order to see them all properly, I'd never move from my computer. There are so many good photos.
I like grasshoppers aswell. In my old garden there were lots of them but I haven't seen any here. I'll have to get my little "wild patch" going so they can be attracted here. ( and I hope Blodyn will leave them alone, not crunch them like sweets the same as my old cat Fluffy would do ! )

It's so pretty and hot, looks it like it's starting to break a sweat....lol. Excellent photo.

Hi Spritz! Andrea asked about this back in January, and got lots of replies (yourself and I included). You might want to check this out. Type "hebe cuttings" in the search box, click the questions tab and it is the first one on the list - and Good Luck with this!

One of my favourite roses.

Somehow I don't think he's a friend. : (
Good photo though.

Beautiful !

You sure hes tunnelling into your garden and not out of it? Esp. if you been singing that song in your garden.

Love white flowers unblemished and pure .

Brilliant photo if he d landed on anything else would be hard to beat this lovely contrast!

Weird&Wonderful :)

SO WHITE :O

Stunning Spritz :O

What a Fab Pink :D

Was this one of LittleLarford's rabbits on holiday?

A lovely dark viola

Oh yes we remember it well Spritz....... Do you have the score for this? How about forming a touring G.O.Y choir to give renditions ?
Best wishes,
Grenville and Alan.

Oh dear sorry Spritz and anyone else driven nuts by my original blog I didnt think for a minute it would give people sleepless nights! If its any consolation Spritz you got your own back as I can vaguely recall a childrens tv programme in the early sixties.It featured a puppet made from a mop head as a dog called Fred and was presented by Wally Wighton? and Muriel ...?.How easily we were entertained back then ..anyway Wally would regularly sing this song and sure he released it anyone remember the show ?

Yes now that you've jogged my memory I do seem to remember someone doing a thing like that many years ago, but I can't remember who it was. Could have been Lanse Percival.

Back in the recesses of my mind, I remember the comedian Lance Percival doing a cover version of this (must have been in the 1960s?). Can't remember much about it except he was singing about rubbish and nasties found in the garden instead of all the nice stuff. Does anyone else remember it?

Well this was an american garden because all of these birds are relatively common here and my guess is that he was from the midwest, because the Bobolink and Tanager are usually found in the upper mid west and northeast and Quail are usually found only in the midwest to far west. 3 varities(sp) of Bluebird live in north america and Cardinals are common east of the rocky mountains. My point is that not only was he way off about an English Garden but you would be hard pressed to find all of these in one American Garden. Poetic liscence (sp) was very much at work here!
