Another change in the weather - back to heavy rain. Five Mute Swans off Langbank floating on the high tide. Lovely patches of Viper's Bugloss at the bend in the motorway. Scattered Poppies in the verges, less washed-out than the ones earlier in the year.
Kids found an enormous Hedgehog (about half the size of a football) in the lane at the back of the house yesterday. Every kid in the neighbourhood came round to speculate on whether it was alive or dead. Unfortunately the clouds of flies around it were a bit of a giveaway.
