    Too many squash and not enough bed!

    The lawn didn’t go brown @Tufty … just slightly pale in patches but then I moved the vines to one side then the other from time to time (and when OH cut the grass) and it made no real impact.

    What's buzzing or flying near you 2024 ?

    A Swollen-thighed Beetle on buttercup. I never saw these in my garden until a few years ago, but now they have become common. Only the males have those impressive thighs.
