Three random things
Jun. 23rd, 2014 03:24 pm1) I met a tiny adder last week on the hill. He curled and hissed and darted defensively at me in a way that clearly expressed 'I am a great big snake! Fear me!' but at the same time suggested that it was trying to conceal a monumental lack of self-confidence. It was a very small adder.
2) Walking down by the river, I saw what looked like a tiny, dark-brown grizzly bear poised in the road in front of me, one paw raised in a heraldic fashion. It looked around at me, and then sprang agily up into the long grass of the bank. I think it may have been a mole.
3) My garden is hot and full of flowers, butterflies and bumblebees, and even some of that great rarity, the honeybee. I saw a fritillary this morning, although it was in too much of a hurry for me to work out which fritillary it was.
