I'm getting 2 types. One at the side and another between posts. It's probably just experiments to get it done. Looks like you had a beautiful day.?

Just give him a cold shower. That'll shrink him down to size ?
The shirts are done for the fishing trip!
Good morning! Hope you all have a beautiful day
Have a great day also Heather!
Good afternooning all. I hope your day is going well.
I have been sorting out the garden a bit today.
I very carefully extracted the leafcutter bee cocoons from their bee hotel. They won’t emerge until next month so they’ll stay in a ventilated tub in the garage for a few more weeks. The construction is fascinating. They use pieces of leaf, mostly rose, and by the look of it a few rose petals to make the cells to lay their eggs in. And each cell has a ball of pollen for the bee grub to feed on. There’s a lovely smell of pot pourri from these cocoons!
The bee hotel has been in the garage, safe from frost, all winter but I wanted to clean it to ensure there were no parasites hanging around to grab this year’s bees. Obviously, you can’t use insecticide on the bee hotel so the trays were scrubbed in hot water and, when they’re dry, they’ll go in the freezer for a few days to ensure no parasite eggs remain alive.
Out in the garden, a second Red Mason Bee has emerged from its cocoon 10 days after the first. I have been bringing these into the garage on frosty nights. Hopefully the rest will emerge soon ?

Good afternoon/evening all.
It's been cold and wet and windy here again today with some sunny spells
Had a follow up at the hospital today after my melanoma removal.
They checked me for any other abnormal moles and lesions, and also my lymph nodes to make sure nothing has developed further and thankfully all good. If the scar hasn't improved by Autumn I may be referred for laser treatment, but don't have to go back for 3 months now.
Apart from that went dandy picking for Lola.
He seems to have changed his eating pattern the last few days and not eaten until the evening
Strange tort.

Glad to hear your melanoma checkup went well. JoesDad goes for annual chelcs and ha had several oddities removed over the years. Fortunately nothing has proved significant, but he’s a red head with weird skin and regardless of colouring you cannot be too careful.Good afternoon/evening all.

I can't bring myself to x this one out but most likely the moderators should be aware that Etsy has an ad on the forum selling torts at a reduced rate. The plants are still at full price.
Glad everything was good at the hospital!Good afternoon/evening all.

These are either very large chicken legs or very small eggs. ??
Good news on the follow up! That’s awesome
I don't get the ads. Next time you see it send a screen shot to Josh.
Ok. It was there several times. But I might have to send it to you. I'm not sure how to send it to him.
