Clover, Colour and Clouds

05 Jul

1   Walking through the park into town this morning, the honey scent of the clover was quite heady.

As I’m writing this I’m looking out of the window into the field at the back and there’s a young fox chasing magpies, rabbits and his own tail!

    The smell of clover flowers is one of my favorites. It reminds me of childhood. Great pictures!

      Getting down among the flowers for the photo, the smell was wonderful! Glad you were reminded of being a child! 🙂

    Sounds like you had a relaxing dinner and evening.. I like the glimpses of nature that we catch while sitting still.

      It’s a favourite!

      I’ve been trying to make a comment on your blog. It disappears so I’m putting it here. Perhaps you could do a copy and paste onto your blog!

    I always liked the three wise monkeys, and wondered why there wasn’t a fourth-do no evil!
    Nice photos of the park and the sky.
