more finches

Well the finches have more than doubled. Yesterday I saw five! Squabbling away, being selfish over feeding and messy feeders they are too as more food ends up on the ground than in them! The thistle seeds are so fine than no other bird seems interesting in them so here's the question can I re use the seed?

There are only four birds i never did manage to get the fifth in shot.
I had a busy Sunday afternoon de-weeding the flags


And now they look neat and tidy


for a bit anyway.

We are eating more produce from the allotment


and in a break between bird visits magic came t say hello



July tomorrow where has half a year gone?
