Question for a calm winter moment
. Sometimes I make my way carefully through my land. Dragonflies and moths fly up in a flurry. Honeybees buzz from blossom to blossom. Part the leaves and I see insects, spiders, frogs, lizards, and many other small animals bustling about in the cool shade by ThaiGer

Bees, Butterflies and Blooms

Talkback: Roses and their pests

Talkback: Protecting fruit from birds
Not me! Mainly because the wasps beat the birds to my fruit.... that is, all those that haven't already fallen prey to codling moth grubs.But part-eaten fruit are still good for juicing (once the nibbled bits have been cut away). And like Ryan, I by Ryan

Talkback: Southern oak bush-cricket
of a time I bought home a packet of baby figs from the Alpujarras in Spain that caused our kitchen cupboard to be infested for 2 years with tiny moth-like insects. No matter how we cleaned or threw food out, they came back like Cliff Richard by judyjenn
