Lift off

The wasps are starting to come to the bird bath to take on water for their nest, wherever it is, which has given me the opportunity to sit outside and practice different settings.  Still not got it right but bear with me whilst I work on it.

It was very hot and I couldn't stay out for long, especially this afternoon when the tennis has been on.

I've added an extra of a Jersey Tiger Moth which I noticed has been visiting the garden.  I'd like to get it in flight to show off the beautiful red underwings, but that'll be a challenge.

We have had rain but it's dried as soon as it's hit the patio.  The flying ants are also starting to appear, which must be about a month earlier than usual.
