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.

What are we doing in the garden 2026
Weeding around the rhododendrons and azaleas, ordered another one of each, this year hopefully can look after them better by watering and putting a mulch around them.
