I'm very nearly tempted to go out on a weevil hunt when it gets dark - or not, perhaps, we've got quite a lot of steps round here and I'd only do myself a mischief!
My weevil hunts are more like bug safaris now. There's so much life to see after dark. I found a busy ants nest tonight working away in the dark. I didn't think we had ants so they might be a new colony this year. Just a short hunt tonight but I still found 6 weevils.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
Must be getting on top of them now @wild edges - literally I'm not too curmudgeonly today, but I was yesterday as I was hoping to get on with some planting, and I had some unexpected visitors. Then it rained anyway, so I felt less annoyed No chance of getting anything done today in the wind and rain, which means I may have to do the indoor jobs which need doing. Curmudgeonly again
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I'm feeling curmudgeonly with myself. I thought pimpernels were pretty little things and encouraged them now they're everywhere, seeds all over the shop. But they look good with the yellow oxalis which is rampant too. A tiny plus but not enough😕
