Autumn/Fall

We are definitely mid-autumn here, it's cold out, 1.5 degrees on the weather station, and the trees are turning aflame, the fungi have reached the mid point, and the brambles which have been very fruitful due to all the rain, have turned.

It was 20 here yesterday (in the shade).

What a contrast.

We have the 1st prolonged heavy rain day for months.

aflame,

Lovely word.

20! That's like high summer shorts and t-shirts weather round here! The woolies have come out the cupboards and the warmer duvets are on the beds. It feels like the first morning frost is whisperingly close.

I think the climate regions are definitely shifting. Southern England sounds more like France!

We were feeding hedgehogs since the spring, but we went away for a few days in August and they never came back. (We had a wildlife camera near it). Sad times. :( They are funny, they make little snuffly noises, which can be weird if you are out in the dark and can hear them but not see them!

Just ordered the bat box, maybe we can move the camera over there to see if it gets used. My daughter wanted one with a camera inside but they were a lot more expensive!
