Buddleia day

I came across this young Buddleia (butterfly bush) growing beside the track on our walk this morning. It was laden with arching blooms but sadly there weren’t any butterflies around to enjoy it. 
In the afternoon I took the loppers to the buddleia in our garden. I think it is quite an old shrub so I’m hoping that my rather extreme actions might just rejuvenate it next year.
We are enjoying some of the Olympics competitions this evening, particularly the mountain biking where Britain’s Tom Pidcock won a gold medal, making an incredible come-back after he lost quite a bit of time with a puncture.
