Grey day colour in the garden.

Had to drive out today but was a pleasure in the warm sunshine. Lots of cow-slips on the verges but taking pictures when driving is not easy or advisable. However, I did manage one.

 

[baldlygo]

There not cow-slips that's mistletoe up there. :grin2:

Yes Jan - when we first came to France I thought they were nests.

Tonight's moon - tomorrow it will be a Worm Moon

Last nights visitors - some unexpected!

My camera is a recent birthday present. I have only used it in earnest 3 times but I am very impressed. It is a COOLIFE 16MP 1080P HD Caméra designed to be safe outside. I chose it myself and was surprised to find such quality for the price - €59 and includes 32G sd card. I.m looking forward to finding out who is digging holes in my grass.

 

[baldlygo]

That's it Jan.

 

[baldlygo]

Mine was very straight forward. Put batteries and sd card in - set up basics (still shot or video - Video quality - clip length) and it is ready to position and turn on. Very simple.

 

[baldlygo]

Should have had my camera out tonight

 

[baldlygo]

Sunny but very cold - this mornings frost has killed nearly all our magnolia flowers

 

[baldlygo]

Thats one flower mother nature got wrong, they come out too early and often get nipped by the frost and they are so beautiful.

Luckily I took some pictures Easter Sunday.

Last weeks excuse for not working in the garden was it was too cold. This week it is too hot (26.3 on our weather station as I type) :wink2::wink2:

 

[baldlygo]

Dull and now drizzly here but it hasn't put off the big buzzers

 

[baldlygo]

Hazey blue sky and sunshine - 21deg - but very very windy from the South. Made me think of this from a distant past. (Never realised it was unaccompanied before)

 

[baldlygo]

More clouds than blue sky and not very warm. I think more showers today

 

[baldlygo]

I won't be wearing my shorts this week :frown2:

I largely ignore weather experts, remember Michael Fish in the 80s.

hope it stays nice for the little one Pat.

I remember that '87 storm very well. Got up at 2 am and prepared to move out of our old Essex timber cottage. In the light of arcing electric cables, I could see trees bent double in the wind. Very few houses escaped some sort of roof damage and in the morning the roads were littered with branches and broken roof tiles.

Nearly too hot for gardening today.

Clouded over here now but still shows 24 on the thermometer.
