My Little Friend.....!!!

Always appears in the garden whenever I go out ...but I wasn’t expecting him to fly right down beside me when I went out to take a photo of the laden down conference pear tree in the garden next door...(that’s my extra)...!!!
He was so close and never moved while I took several photos of him...
Still recovering from our busy week....and I’ve had a busy day making Raspberry & Rhubarb Jam...using the last crop of rhubarb in the garden...still plenty left for more jam..!
And pickling lots of fresh beetroot, given to me by my neighbor fresh from her sisters garden in Wicklow..
Ooooh it’s delicious..!
And it’s a lovely mild Autumn day too...!
