An abundance of meadowsweet in the riverside meadow today. It is one of the prettiest and most fragrant of our wildflowers.
Not so nice on the nature front: the sparrow-hawk is making regular trips over the garden for his/her dinner. Life is hard, but at least nature, in the main, is fairer than people often are. How does one cope with the thought of highly educated medical people being indoctrinated into suicide bombings. No question mark there – because there isn’t really an answer.
Wonderful that Alan Johnston is realeased. It was lovely to see the expressions of joy on his parents’ faces.
