I've realised that most of my reads are not exactly cheery. Does anyone have any feel good happy reads to recommend?

Please say no to pesticides and herbicides. Cocktails of these chemicals in fields, gardens, parks, verges and community spaces are poisoning bees, birds, hedgehogs, butterflies, beetles, frogs, damselflies and more, while running off into rivers too. Let's give nature a chance!

Are you a SO Energy user with a Smart Meter? Keep an eye on your monitored usage - suddenly my daily usage went up (erroneously) x4 for 12 days this month! Cust. Care (sic) eventually told me this is a known issue, which is been worked on. I'm hoping that the issue doesn't feed through to the Bill.

Hello. It's the same here. Thanks, and you too.

Sighs, and nods in agreement. Thanks, it's been dull and raining here so I'm mooching around indoors.

Hello. Good picture. Enjoy your day.

Last day of our sale today 😊 Anyway, here's a Sunflower, still supporting wildlife at the end of September🌻 In this one shot I've counted 1 Bumblebee, 4 Hoverflies, 1 unidentified bug and at least 8 flies of various species 😍 I don't know who had a good feed on the leaf 😂🐛 #MHHSBD

A big, bright Sunflower with bright yellow petals and a yellow centre.
One leaf is visible that has been munched by someone unknown, probably a caterpillar.
The flower has many different insects visiting and is against a bright blue sky, crossed by a black telephone cable.

It's one thing to plant trees - but how can we keep them alive in these days of drought?

With a delay that long they should say why they're running so late. Typical poor communication and so annoying, but I'm not surprised. Take care.

29 September is Michaelmas, the feast of St. Michael and All Angels. St. Michael, traditionally the celestial warrior who leads the fight against evil, is patron saint of soldiers, paratroopers and police officers. The Michaelmas daisy, or aster, is his dedicated flower.

Collage of Michaelmas daisies in shades of soft lilac-blue. A small copper butterfly rests with open wings on one flower, while a meadow brown feeds on another. Other images show clusters of the daisy-like flowers, with yellow centres, blooming in the late-summer garden.

Lovely flowers. I grow lots on the plot including one with small white flowers which I call Twinkling Stars (it's really Monte Cassino) which are just starting to appear.

Good morning! How are you holding up? What are you up to today? This handsome tree frog (Pacific Chorus Frog) was basking on an Angelica leaf in the garden yesterday. I've started shuffling pots around to get them in position for winter. Today I may pot up some volunteer tree seedlings.

A tree frog with a green outer edge/belly/face and a tan back and legs sits crouched in a large leaf. It has distinct dark eye stripes and some spots and whooshes of dark on his back.

Hello. I'm okay thanks. I've done the same as yesterday, on the plot this morning and sofa flying reading (with tea and biscuits) this afternoon. Always good to see frogs. Good for you, and happy seed sowing. Enjoy your day.

It's been cloudy but dry here. I always think that water droplets add a touch of magic.

You're welcome. Thanks, and the white Twinkling Stars are just starting to appear.

Do that and we're bound to get an Indian summer next month...

🌱 I think these are two different flowers?

Either. The green in the background of the right-hand one matches the dog's eye.
