Spring was late with the cold May and has put everything back at least 3 weeks. This was especially noticeable with the May blossom or Hawthorn flowers which nearly started flowering in June. The flowers did slowly start to come out and we had the lovely displays we come to expect. One thing that is very noticeable this year is the lack of insects and the cold weather in May must have affected them along with other factors such as chemical use on farms.
Must have had a Grass-snake in my garden again as I saw 2 Common Frogs out during the day on my lawn. Don't know how many Frogs I have now, but if I keep getting raided by a Grass-snake their numbers will be going. It was 7 at the last count. Will have another count one day.
