Tuesday View (29th July)

I waited all day for the sun to come out properly, as it was hiding behind a humid haze, but then we had a thundery downpour… look at that rain!

The ferns on the far left, which I cut back almost a month ago, have grown so rapidly and filled out again – the weather suits them very well.

Then, a few minutes later, the sun came through and everything was glittering, the Perovskia looking lovelier than ever…

I found this butterfly waiting until the rain stopped completely – a Common Blue I think. (I’ll be posting my butterfly diary for July in a couple of days.)

Have you had thunderstorms too?
