OCTOBER GARDEN!

Yippee! Black Truffles in the Garden or so we hoped, joy however was shortlived!, Botanical Gardens Wales's Bruce Longridge kindly identified them as King Alfred's Cakes, similar size & colour but not at all tasty, we found them after cutting back a clump of Grass.

Our Blackbird hen though is equally puzzled & spends a lot of time with them ensuring the clump of growths is not a brood of young Blackbirds or even black eggs.

Opaque Eggs clutch is from a Grass Snake & seems well out of season & laid vulnerably exposed (first week in October 2008) I have moved it to a well bushed area on the common, probably the frogs will celebrate that, adults probably in the woodpile/compost heap here.

A Pink Brugmansia appears in second week of October on plants now moved into the greenhouse, 2 Datura below though still out in the weather!, our so called Ozzies' Wonga Wonga Vine still flowering late season, purple ones blue & white ones almost the size of a Coffee Cup.
