Neither do I, Spritz, but my OH doesn't get home till after 6pm so I have to deal. Anyway, he's a big wimp so not a lot of help, lol.
Today, a sparrow came in, fortunately it found its way out again almost straight away.

 

Lovely to see the Peacock butterfly. We've hardly had any butterflies in the garden.

 

I found one in my conservatory today & it's the only one I have seen this year. We opened all the windows wide so it could go outside. Last week a dove flew in - really made me jump.

 

Almost posed!!

Lovely pic.

 

Yes, I've seen this one in a few places this year. Not convinced it would overwinter here, but its a beautiful flower.

 

Beautiful.

 

Lovely peachy coloured ones!

I have only seen one in our garden this year ... and that one had a 'nibbled' wing! Good to know they are in abundance in your garden :o)

 

beautiful :)

 

so has my angel face dd2 :o)

 

Oh really, have put a couple in the ground this year, same colour, one is doing well......

 

Westerland is beautiful, so not disappointed....
BTW my sister has just bought another house in Somerset ( the 2nd one) we decided to come and visit and pop in and see you at the same time, she sold it!! hoping she will keep this one, she is very unreliable though, so anything could happen lol

Looked at it today, and nothing, yet the German rose Angel face has flowered non stop?

 

I love this one too, nearly bought it, but went for Westerland instead....

This is one of our favourites, and it bloomed earlier on, then that was that!! we have had this happen to some of the roses this year, not sure if it was lack of water, too much heat or what, we needed it to open as we had a booking by appointment, typical!! and only half of the roses were out!! I don't blame you buying more, everyone who had seen it in the garden loves it.....

 

Oh you are not keen then?

 

this is a beauty Spritz. I emailed last week did you get it or has it gone astray?

 

Not surprised it's your favourite, it's a lovely unusual colour - added it to my favs now too.

 

It does look spectacular! I'm adding to my faves to remind me to look out for it... ;o)
