Abbey Gardens Tresco

A lovely paddle this morning out to the sea spaghetti fields, spotted one seal playing in the water. This afternoon went round the Abbey Gardens great selection of almost tropical like flowers and plants. Top spotting, highlights include
1. Golden pheasant (very rare) only emerged when the garden was almost empty
2. Red squirrels- introduced onto the island (easy spot)
3. Film crew leaving the island in expensive helicopters (just happened to be in the right place at the right time)
4. Little, small copper butterfly (rare where we live but not on the islands)
