You'll have to refer back to the "from the listening chair" thread for that...

Indeed. Third one it is, 7 years after the second. A very cute baby it is, though that's subjective assessment, but objective assessment would concur surely. Though that's subjective..

Exactly

My Acer. The colour was even more beautiful a couple of weeks back. It's just starting to turn to it's summer colour of green with pink edges. No such spectacular colour in Autumn with this one though....

Another Maple - this one has flowered this year. Not seen it do this before - might be interesting....

Gardening pictures....Well, sort of. I'm more into wild gardening. I'm sure if you could ask these fellas having a gathering on a warm morning earlier in the week, they'd agree! - loads of bugs to eat

Congrats AlexanderVH! and for future reference - I find having a wild garden also helps when one has teenagers as neither wants to help me mow the lawn! - Anyway, a very cute baby.

Kind regards,

Peter

A general view...


Green-Winged Orchid (Anacamptis morio)...


Albino variant...


And a fantastic swathe of Lady's Smock (Cardamine pratensis) at Saxted Green...


A happy and successful day

Not a nice photo, but it makes me chuckle!



I finally remembered to stop off and take this pic today.
