Can you see them?? 🐝🐝 There has been a lot of interest around this bait hive and a stack of beehive bits in the ope shed beneath this afternoon.... πŸ€”πŸ€” I am hoping to be back from site by midday tomorrow as between 12 and 1 I might be getting some new neighbours!! πŸ˜† That tends to be the time that bees swarm and these property viewers were scout bees! 🀨 There were quite a few so I am hopeful!! ☺️

Didn't make at the weekend due to another pesky migraine...once they are on the way there is no shifting them! 🀒 Should be okay for Newent Saturday Market this weekend! 🀞

We feel a collaboration coming on! πŸ˜€ Siobhan also makes soap dishes (although she had sold out so I had none to try...) so watch this space! πŸ₯° Siobhan considers the sustainability of her materials so a lady after my own heart!! πŸ’š

I had to take a pic of this splendid beast!! πŸ₯°. Partly because it was so beautiful...it shone in the sunshine, the colours are metallic...but also so I could try and work out what it is!! πŸ€”πŸ“šπŸ“–πŸ“’ Luckily we are a household of innumerable identification guides!! πŸ˜†

This is a male 'Nemophora degeerella', one of the 15 species of longhorn moths! It is a micro moth. πŸ¦‹ I know it is a male as it's antenna (horns!!) are soooo long! If you look carefully you can see the left antenna nearly reaching the left hand corner of the photo!! 😍😲 This is a new record for the garden!! πŸ˜€ Yes, we do keep a record! πŸ‘πŸ“’

ITV SW came and did a little piece for the news (last Saturday 5:45pm) about the market and it's 400 year old history and interviewed a few folks including Alana our indoor manager and Kirsty who put the exhibition about the history of the market and it's stall holders together. πŸ₯°
