Look at the visitor I had to my fishpond this week, what
a beauty, it’s a Southern Hawker dragonfly, with it’s recognisable colourings
and marks and one of the largest of the dragonfly family, they only live as
adults for about two months so I’m very lucky to see it!
I’m thoroughly enjoying sitting back and watching all the
pollinating insects buzzing around the garden and pleased to see the amount of
bees busily coming and going. I’m popping into Cadnam Garden Centre on Saturday
2nd August as a local bee keeper is visiting with a contained bee
hive and demonstating the working life of a bee and how honey is made, should
be really interesting!!
