Almost Too Hot!

Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

What a day! I mean, we do like the warm weather with blue skies and no clouds but right from first thing this morning it has been warmer that it has been all year!

This morning it was so hot that the birds stayed hidden in the bushes so all Old Two Legs had to photograph was the vegetation!

 No, not sure what this is or was but we supose it had petals at one time, just not now!

 This is a good one, no flowers but it had  a mighty great number of seed pods that were waiting for Autumn Time to spread the seeds all over the place!

 Now, you know what this one is and it even hangs onto the flower head over the Winter time so it gets a good start in the Spring!


 Now Holly looks at these and says that they look like Whizz Bangs after all the seeds have dropped!

 

 Just before the forest this lot came into sight, absolutely loads of them, we reckon that they must have sown a load of Wild Flower seeds to get this spread of blooms!

Just amazing!

Finally, we spotted a flash of blue and look what landed in front of us!


It's a pity we didn't see it with the wings spread out, the blue really stands out!

Tomorrow it is down to the rubbish dump then back home to load the caravan full of nibbles and stuff.

OTL is going to get out his clothes tonight so that when Saturday comes, we can leave at the crack of dawn and get a good start.

Gretna Green next stop?

Hey! What do you think of the garden?

All full of 'Wild Flowers' and floggies!

OTL says that when we get back from the holidays, he is going to clean out the pond and fill it with new plants and stuff!

Maybe Holly and I can then go in swimming!

 

 See you tomorrow.

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.

This weather better continue long enough for our holiday!

 Hi Woofers!

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret here!

Another super sunny day with just the hint of a breeze!

We asked Eric if he wanted to come out with us but he said he was just too tired after the trip to the vet he would pass on the kind offer!

Today we have been hunting flowers and came across a load of Goats Beard with different coloured flowers.

First there was this one with the yellow petals in the centre of the flower.


Then there was the one with the big yellow centre and no purple petals at all!

Next the more traditional Goats Beard with no yellow and just purple petals. This is how we normally see the flowers.


Now, we don't know what this one is but it has four leaves and a flower in the middle, strange!


This one is a Damselfly and has nothing to do with flowers!



When we got to the bench Old Two Legs decided to try to get a picture of Holly and I but Holly stayed under the bench while I roasted on top after taking a well-earned 'Deep Paddle' in the river!

Let's hope the weather keeps going like this over the holiday!

See you tomorrow!

Luv,

Daisy, Holly, Miss Wendy and Eric de Ferret.
