THE LARCH!*

I think it's a Aphidecta obliterata or larch ladybird, which is odd as I found him while harvesting my autumn raspberries, but there are some conifer trees nearby, so maybe he was just having a wee wander and a taste of the berries - and who wouldn't, they are delicious. Oh, and I brought him indoors to photograph, that is a large dinner plate he is running around on, not an oversize rasp. Don't worry, I put him back safely.

Early blip tonight as I am chasing my tail to get to be organised for the next few days...

GOOD THINGS:
Lunch and a wee stroll with the Professor in the Duchal Woods
Getting started on OU T189 - scary, but exciting
Dramatic weather - hot sun, heavy showers, hail, thunder and lightning and now peaceful blue shy with amazing cloud formations

EXERCISE DIARY:
An hour's hard digging in the garden.
