craiggrannell, I half mowed our front garden this weekend. I got a bit sad when I saw crickets fleeing everywhere and a ladybird that I’d nearly mowed over. (Insects are… not doing well locally.) So I just stopped. It has grown that much since June anyway.
I just went outside. It’s no hive of activity, but there are bugs flitting around and a couple of bees.
Turns out I hate convention regarding gardens and need to figure out how to deal with that for next year. Not sure entirely how.
