Sunday in the garden

Yesterday I had a long session in the garden. It was dry and breezy. Excellent day for getting my winter bedding washed and dry. Unfortunately the evening before I had checked accuweather website for the weather forecast which was predicting a lot of rain between Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon!

The ground on the flower bed where I dug 2 holes to put in my scabious plants was very dry despite the rain we have had the last fortnight or so.

There was a crow in my neighbour Dorothy's buddleia bush breaking off twigs for a nest. A little while later the crow and its mate where in my other neighbour's ash tree screaming at a cat climbing. The cat retreated, coming backwards down the treet The leaves are still young in that ash tree, and the one beside it, so not a great deal of cover, and I can't see any sign of a nest so don't know what the crows were trying to protect!
