    What's buzzing flying near you 2026

    2 of the 4 Puffins at Dancing Ledge, very distant. Unfortunately the numbers are getting less and they haven't bred for many years so they will eventually die out.

    Hozelock Auto Reel, Outside Year round or.....

    I remove the spray gun after every use and keep it inside. The hose itself is fastened on the sheltered back wall of the house.

    Cordyline Australis: Is this dead?

    That looks very similar to the one my brother has. We had colder than -5c here this year and it suggests burgandy spires can only take a lite frost, so perhaps similar cultivars are the same.
