My collection of potted herbaceous plants grown especially for pollinators on our driveway. These pots are interchangeable so no matter what time of the year i try to find flowering plants to feed insects. Have a lovely weekend everyone. #Plantsforpollinators

Heatwave in the UK. OK, I grew up in Italy, and when it is very hot and you have no air-conditioning, you do this - 1) Unless there's a good breeze, CLOSE all the windows and draw all the blinds and curtains until sunset. The outside air is hot, you do not want it inside with you. 2) DRINK WATER

Bird lovers: If a bird hits your window, take it to a rehab center even if seems to be recovering! They often have broken legs or internal injuries and they fly away only to die hours later. -sincerely, someone who just brought a stunned bird into a rehab center and is passing along what they said
