After a Hail Shower!

After a Hail Shower!

A reflection and photos from my friend, Gill Henwood.
(a nice treat after I have spent a few days in hospital)

Surprising resilience and fortitude from the peonies in full bloom, despite rainstorms and hail showers interspersed by wind and sun.

Beauty with endurance – much to ponder…

And, thankfully, though the rabbit invasion has chomped off all the aquilegia and ragged Robin, they have so far spared the peonies. The badgers have been busy in the short nights, rotovating the meadow for pignut roots, slugs and worms. Their presence only known by their deeds.

The joys of country gardening!
