I’ve had a rather an exciting summer, moving to a new home 65 miles across the country! I now live in the Market Bosworth area and it’s a lovely place to live.
I have hedgehogs visiting my front garden, at least 5 different individual hogs come to munch on the bowls of mealworms that I leave out for them. I’m guessing they come from the beautiful allotments just down the road from me.
I’ve also got colony of sparrows and a flock of starlings visiting the bird feeders in my front garden. It’s wonderful to watch, but I do end up refilling the feeders every day!
In a hunt to find a top up bird seeds for those hungry birds, I found a lovely garden centre. In the warm sun, I balanced eating an ice cream with photographing these lovely butterflies!
On my way home from work one night I got a surprise, I came across a gathering of traction engines. So I had to stop and admired the incredible machines!
I had a bit of fun another evening, watched the Leicester Morrismen. A pint and a dance, a great evening!
The most random of moments happened a few weeks ago. When I opened the door to put out the hedgehog food, a large buzzing beastie flew over my head. Turned out to be a Large Elephant Hawk-moth. A most welcome and colourful house guest!
My last photo for this blog is a rather stunning sunset taken on my way home from work one evening. I couldn’t resist stopping to admire these fiery streaks of colours.
