3.30pm and the sudden storm and heavy rain that abruptly ended the recent hot sunny days has passed. I have been in the garden breathing in the heady scent of the lilac. Two swifts circle the eaves and a wood pigeon lazily flaps into the top of a high cypruss while a startled squirrel scuttles quickly away. The occasional snort of the horse as it rolls in the luxury of the damp cool paddock is all that breaks the sound of nature's choir that swells the air on all sides with bird song.
Yes - I am full of wonder.........
