So fascinating.<br /><br />Yes a very hot Summer for UK with little rain.<br />I refer my temperatures around 20C, when they reach 30C I struggle.<br /><br />Nella does enjoy the garden and tends to follow me around now :)<br />Bless her.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14802468583972118464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186002245944913029.post-38100455702349006152018-07-16T08:25:10.029-07:002018-07-16T08:25:10.029-07:00What an absolutely stunning post!

You are such a wiz with the camera, capturing the essence of insects and stimulating the imagination (I can just see Miss Demoiselle sitting down to breakfast, napkin folded neatly in her lap, delicately taking her first sip just as you clicked - LOL). <br /><br />And Mr. Peacock getting nice and comfy, ready to pose for you. Well, actually, he looks rather modest and totally unaware of your camera, so I'd have to say he wasn't really posing. As to the Inula! Shabby chic made me laugh! It's so the rage of furniture painting and decor these days.<br /><br />Anyway - nice to catch up. It's extremely hot here as well this summer and dry.

I have been spending as much time watching insects in my garden as looking at the blooms:) I scrolled through your last post to catch up; it sounds like your summer has been as hot as ours has been. It has been hard to keep up with the garden in this heat, and all the rain we've had has also meant the weeds are flourishing. Thankfully, all the blooms right now distract me from the weeds:) Good to see Nella again. I'm sure she still enjoys her time in the garden with you.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186002245944913029.post-51077968021108568602018-07-15T12:13:09.338-07:002018-07-15T12:13:09.338-07:00Hi Lisa,
