Friday July 8

A few minutes in the garden, using the excuse of watering plants, allowed me time to try to photograph one of the handful of Swifts which still fly over head at this time of the year.

I also fished a tiny insect out of the bird bath and photographed that.

Common Froghopper
This little creature is responsible for the cuckoo spit which adorns our lavender. It no doubt ended up in the bird bath after taking a hop too far.

Later on I chucked some chicken fat onto the roof of the shed. Half an hour later two Lesser Black-backed Gulls were gobbling it up.
