Indian Summer

It's the start of a beautiful day, and my first sunflower outside the front door is just beginning to open. This Bumble Bee couldn't wait to get some nectar from it.
'M' and I are having a quiet day, mooching around in the lovely weather.
The pears which I picked in the week are now poaching in red wine , or being made into crumble. Luckily I am leading a garden working day tomorrow so there will be plenty of people to eat up all the cooking.
