Growing on

Some welcome rain on Friday although to be honest not enough as a dull damp day resulted in only 3.6mm from a few spells of light rain. It wasn't a day for visiting the plot.

Our grapes are starting to swell nicely. The root of the vine is planted just inside the greenhouse but it’s never watered and yet it’s still producing an excellent crop once again this year. I hope the grapes will be ready for eating by the middle of August.

Is this an adult robin or one of our juveniles who has now got its adult plumage? For the last few weeks we've seen a few juvenile robins about just starting to get their adult plumage but no adults.
