Lethargic

by JDO | posted in: Bees, Invertebrates, My garden, Worcestershire | 0

I’m not sure whether the plumpies or I were more torpid today, but certainly none of us was moving at any kind of speed. To be fair, it was very cold – technically over 10°C, but with a fierce easterly … Continued

Spotted

Cross
