A cool wind blew during the morning which was no doubt a relief to everyone but though the wind is still blowing it feels very hot now.
I spent most of the day painting the garden wall. 60ft long and starting at 2ft high going up in jumps to 5ft. It needs a second coat and then I can start preparing the next two, shorter sections.
Today's photos are all from my morning coffee break.
Painted ladies having been arriving in large numbers all along along the coast. Amazing to think they have travelled from North Africa or Southern Europe.
Another summer migrant is the Silver Y moth.
Red Admiral.
A common white butterfly. (Technically there is no such thing as a cabbage white though that's what many people call them.)
The meadow brown was hard to photograph as it never stayed long in one spot.
A Hummingbird Hawk moth.
These sparrows were enjoying the bird bath which I clean and top-up everyday.
There's no disco aerobics tonight. not because of the heat but the work on the lights has not been completed.
PS. The jaw ache has lessened a little, more like a nagging toothache, and is responding to my regular painkillers.
