Rain Again!

Friday, May 11th 2012

Lawn cutting and dam repairing were two jobs on the list today.  This is the dam that was to be repaired!

When the rain eased the trees, plants and flowers were covered in glistening water droplets.

Yesterday the St Mark's flies were to be seen on the wing over many parts of the reserve.  Today they were hiding under leaves and clinging tightly to stems and they too had their accompanying water droplets!
