I finally made a start tidying up the garden a few weekends ago & left a lot of the stuff I'd chopped back around the garden. Last week I spotted a blackbird collecting some of the clippings for a nest that she's building in the yellow topiary euonymus! #GardensHour 🌱

In 2024 the garden was strangely ladybirdless. Last summer they returned and if the past few days are anything to go by, there will hopefully be more this year #GardensHour 🌱
