Shadows

An outing, the first this week, my back is feeling much better.

No gardening but an opportunity to observe. I was enjoying the shadows and acknowledging that I am too late to prune this clematis when I noticed that I was being challenged for this space. This Robin often tells me to get lost but today he was much closer.

This week we realised that my dream garden is not likely to happen this year. Covid holding up planning and Brexit holding up materials. Mildly frustrating as I packed up the garden at the end of last year so my favourite plants are in unsightly plastic pots or other people's gardens. Ah well, I've waited 10 years, another won't hurt.
