Autumn Leaves

The following pictures are of the leaves of my smoke bush which are turning the most incredible colours. Along with this is the Autumn sun shine which is enhancing these colours amazingly……

This one shows the original colour of the leaf.

Click here for a description of the original shrub.

Saucy Cabbage White!

I’m a cabbage white
And it’s time for me to mate
So I sit upon a flower
With abdomen in the air I wait!!
Then along comes Mistress Photograph
She spoils the romantic vibe
And the handsome beau I’m wooing
Flies away to the right to hide!

As you can see, I didn’t quite manage to get the two of them together-he was off like a shot!

That’s All!

Porcelain Flower

So we were given a plant by our elderly neighbour when we were moving away from the area. She said it didn’t need much care (luckily!) and would last forever. That was quite a few years ago and it has only been a leafy sort of plant….until……..we moved it upstairs and it produced the most amazing flowers….

Look!

The flies seemed to love the drippy sticky nectar!

That’s All!

Dandelion and Stink Bug!

I’m not a fan of dandelions in my garden but they are very beautiful!

So are stink bugs in my opinion!

Golden Pheasant at Kew Gardens

We were very lucky to see these Golden Pheasants yesterday. The males were so fast racing about trying to impress the gals with their finery!

And when I say fast-look he’s just a blur……

Iceland

Here are a few photos from my short break in Seltjarnarnes, Reykjavik, Iceland.

The first 2 are of Harpa, the concert hall in Reykjavik. It was a beautiful day, perfect for photos with reflections of the scenery.

This next photo is of the whaling boats in the harbour (with the red H on) and the whale watching tour boats moored right next to them!!

That’s All!
