Bodnant Garden Visit May 2017...

Beautiful photos Kandy ... thanks for sharing.

 

I went there when I lived in Wales nearly 30 years ago

 

Thanks for your lovely comments everyone

It has been over forty years since I last went there and that was in September time so missed the Laburnum arch plus I wasn't really into flower gardening as such in those days.Would have loved to have done the whole estate but as it was a hot day we couldn't go out to the furthest point as my foot was killing me and Mr Kandy had to leave me by the entrance while he fetched the car as I couldn't walk the distance we had had to park due to the many people who wanted to visit the gardens.

Mr Kandy has always wanted to visit the gardens so he enjoyed it as much as I did and at least I could appreciate it better this time

 

Was that a rat?

 

No Zigs,it was a baby mouse (Wood?) and it was desperately trying to cling on as it searched for food.We met people that said there were two of them but we only saw the one.He turned round and ended up head first looking down the other side of the wall and was clinging on with his feet claws until he fell.Luckily he was ok and carried on snuffling amongst the old dead tree leaves

 

No, we had a wood mouse, it didn't have girt feet and eyes like that
