It's been another gorgeous day today though a wee bit breezy. I took a run round the island in the car. The Buttercups are looking glorious. Above looking towards Hoy High and Sandside.
Looking over towards Garson, and Stromness on the Orkney Mainland.
Wind and rain forecast this week so I took more pix of the garden to remind me what it is supposed to look like!
Thalictrum, geranium and crocosmia. Mist rolling in behind!
Lupins, chives and astrantia
Astrantia close up.
Allium with columbine (aquilegia) behind.
Sculpture by local artist...
Some parts of the garden are distinctly feral..... and are preferred spots for Madam Button!
And..... salad leaves - spinach, lettuce, rocket and cress.
And the most beautiful thing of the day..... a (possibly female or maybe young male?) blue-tailed damselfly up at the Graemsay quarry!
