Gently down the stream

By Miranda1008

Great willowherb

Epilobium hirsutum..

Well the sun was back today (hooray) though not as much as they said.  However, it was anyway a day for a local blip as I had a session on the phone trying to sort builders and then went out to lunch.

And I have seen butterflies back in the garden after yesterday's downpour, which is fun.  Shall have to do more hunting of them later in the week.

Don't forget, the tag for this week's wildflower challenge is #WFW08, if you'd like to join in.

And I hope Monday has treated you gently.  Have a great evening  xx
