      I havnt got any this year for a change , I know they fly in once the oil seed rape has finished flowering which I did have but not as close as other years and it rained the last week of flowering so I dont know if that helped ? get rid , I was looking at @shiney photos on the July post as they are smoothed.


      ps I have no hoverfies here yet I have only seen about 2 or 3 ??
      it has rained everyweek

                    Been cleaning the house for days as it gets abandoned for the garden but 38 is just too hot for me to work outside so I've been removing dirt from inside rather than playing outside in it.
                    So many fabulous blooms wish I could add a stunner but my camera is on its way out. I think I'm getting a taste for the spider forms.
