Intermission 25d

A two month drought has seen clear skies or blanketing cloud. Either way cloudy sunsets have been in short supply

The other night a cloudy sunset caught my eye simply because I had not seen one in a while.

Spring has been delightfully dry, sunny with low humidity. It has meant the watering can has been doing overtime at a point when seedlings and young growth can die in days if not watered.

Nature has offered some interest.

Once upon a time cows were commonly seen on York strays – they are still there if you know where to look. Walmgate stray looking towards the iconic York Cemetery complete with those angel statues – think doctor who.
The strays typically are wet – the taller grasses indicate water courses still damp despite the drought

It was a great season for tulips – no wind or rain to batter them down

I wonder what summer will bring?

Wow matey that looks pretty green for a drought but my parents were over there in the early seventies and UK was having a drought then and dad said was hot but still green. WE to are having one and even though its winter there isn’t a green bit of grass to be seen, the only place thats green is my lawn which is a great attraction for the Kangaroos! 🦘😂.
