I have become increasingly fascinated by what is to be found in the hedgerows recently - along with random self seeded wild flowers that have grown in the garden. It's like free gardening. Last week I bought some books so I can identify the butterflies, flowers and moths that I keep wondering about.
Tonight - these lovely white flowers that remind me of vintage linens and embroidery...
...and these tiny white flowers that remind me of stars..
On the way home, two other ladies are out inspecting the hedgerows...
...a pair of guinea fowl! They remind me of old ladies. I imagine them carrying their handbags high infront of them, with both hands, clasped up by their chests.
"Hm... What do you think that is dear?"
"I don't know - lets go home and look it up!"...
Oh yes! I love your description of the guinea foul, you capture them perfectly.
