3dognight - the yellow roses have pink edges (the photo doesn’t show tgat well) and are called the Charlotte Rose. I inherited the others, from the previous owner- dont know what they’re called. I’m not the world’s cleverest gardener 😂

My little front garden

What are your lovely roses please?
I love roses 🌹

Our garden in tiny but there are really old trees in the surrounding gardens so lots of birds come to our feeders.

The Garden is on the playground of the village Board School so it has it's challenges but we love sitting in it and listening to life happening around us.

A view from our top patio.

So loveyl CrazyH- and to see a front garden that has not been concreted for car parking. Bravo.

Why not Staceyann? I live in the mountains. Several types of frogs and newts.

Oh yes, a constant joy. This old Vicarage has a great cottage garden, and is full of wildlife. Been sitting out on the swing watching the house martins and swallows flying in and out of their little window into the barn where they nest. Swifts are going crazy at the back of the house, with the redstarts. Dragonflies are making a racket above the pond, which is full of tadpoles and newts. Sparrows going crazy with all the feeding. And since April, flowers come and go constantly, a different show every other week. And our meadow is full of wildflowers too- with red kites, buzzards, kestrels flying over the hay fields being cut right now. The smell of hay drying in the sun is just wonderful.

At night, I sit at the back watching the many types of bats swopping over the pond and the meadow, and watch the long eared owl babies fluttering from tree to tree, calling incessantly for parents to feed them.

A never ending joy.

Tadpoles in June?

Perhaps it is a wife because they couldn’t find them. Any non-fans must think we are mad.

Absolutely. Or is it an entwife? In a garden?

Lovely gardens TizLiz and Lathyrus.

This is my shady spot where I had my lunch and have spent most of the afternoon.

What a lovely photo, Tizliz.

We always had tawnies in our UK garden. And so many little owls and barn owls in the countryside. But it took me a while to understood what those were. I checked the calls, but didn't get the answer and only found out from a local bird experts that the calls are from the young calling for parents to feed the. We have juge sycomores and ash trees on our meadow boundary, surrounded by grass fields which are being cut for hay, so plenty of mice and other rodents for them. Just a constant 'hee hee hee hee ....' and we see them fluttering from tree to tree. They are HUGE.

I’m envious of you watching the owls. Can hear them but not see them.

Love my garden too.

Yours sounds beautiful. Mine’s just a town plot. Not much on the wildlife front but here it is.
