Even more rain today only this time it was accompanied by thunder….so as you can guess when it rained it was more like a monsoon! So I was surprised that the Iris managed to stay upright. I also guess the ants are much smarter than we think….look closely and you will see they sought shelter under the petals. Despite the thrashing the Water Lillie’s continue to shine through…..
In the woods, the trees managed to provide cover for the new seasons ferns. Whilst the dense leaf canopy provided some protection the trunks themselves rain with water refreshing the bark lichen….
There were some sunny spells…..so if you had the urge to indulge in some sporting activity you had the choice today between Golf or Water Polo!……
