Again, fascinating and very informative…Thanks Jane. I remember you telling me that they were terrestrial bees last week or so, now all is clear

That is fascinating Jane … and much of it borne out by our observations in GG too
Thank you

After I had read this Jane, I went downstairs to look at Tiny Pond, and I don’t think it qualifies as it’s in a small, plastic container

Our pond is finally full again.
Wondering about the chemistry Jane, interesting article.

Thanks for this Jane, a good read and lots I didn’t know. Love pondering, best ever way of wasting a few hours, especially in summer. I’m with Jane Cilla, go on do let him.

I was quite surprised, too, Cilla! Go on, let him have it

Very interesting Jane. Who would have believed that? Perhaps I will let OH have his extension pond after all!

Plenty blackthorn here I think a little cold here polar bears would struggle to settle here

The people who do the Country Diaries fascinate me – so knowledgeable and I always learn something from them.

Wildlife is so fascinating Jane, thank you for these articles

I doubt I would ever spot those Jane, but how wonderful. More evidence of the destructive nature of those wretched flail hedge cutters too

Fascinating Jane, we have lots of hawthorn& blackthorn hedges and trees!! We have either of the above as a hedge on two sides of our garden, but alas live in the East, so it’s proberbly too cold, but I might just and have a look with the binoculars
