Every year this rhododendron seems to produce two different colours of flower on the same bush.

Bad news on the rat front – it is still around, and the electronic gadget does not seem to be discouraging it at all.

I had a first Zoom session this afternoon, an Andy Rouse webinar – excellent, see below. The second screen is the cover of his excellent eBook on Grebes – I bought this when it first came out, but had enormous problems trying to locate it on my computers, and then finding a way of displaying it especially on a Windows machine. It really seemed to be aimed more at Macs and iPads, though I can’t get it onto my iPad at present!
