Hello again to you both, sorry I didn’t realise I had missed replies, thanks for your comments they are very much appreciated :-)
Sue, yes, that’s what I was thinking. Another case of the photo upload revealing something my eye didn’t see when taking photo. I’d guess that happens with you a lot too :-)
Lisa, thank-you, that was an image from a previous summer that I stumbled upon and thought would make a fun image, I loved the colours of the border at that time, it’s been through many changes since then :-)
Garden watching blogger loving all the shared chat & images of plants, birds & wildlife through blogs and tweets. It all began with a couple of bird feeders, moved on to a hedgehog feeding station, planting for pollinators and the building of a wildlife pond. Every step has exceeded expectations in terms of wildlife watching and enjoyment of the garden.
Recommend adding water to a garden, be it a dish for hedgehogs to drink, birdbath for birds to drink and bathe or a pond with sloped edges to attract and support a wider range of wildlife. Also recommend joining The Wildlife Trusts with blogs/tweets for #30dayswild during month of June :-)
No need for sensible shoes. Just click on the photo link above :-)

I’ve noticed Sparrowhawks appear in the garden during wind and rain. To see my more regular visitors they are hiding behind the handsome chap above – just click on his photo :-)
BLUE TIT NESTBOX DIARY 2010
Six eggs, two attentive parents, hundreds of caterpillars, insects & live mealworms. Result… six chicks successfully fledge! Click on photo link above to follow their story through chat, photos & video.
My small garden is in Perthshire, Scotland. I don’t have salmon in my pond, red deer in my borders, ospreys nesting in my acers or red squirrels at my peanut feeders! Nor do I have the world’s highest hedge, paths exciting enough for the serious cyclist and enough of a lawn for golf! However, Perthshire does plus many beautiful gardens too… follow the photo link above to see :-) Update Nov 2016 - Fantastic news, red squirrels now visiting feeders!

Is it some sort of grasshopper/cricket on the coneflower/echinacea on the left?
Beautiful photo as always. You have so much blooming already. Cheers.
