While enjoying the hostas, I'm close enough to enjoy the pond too. As I was watching, a Southern Hawker started to do some ovipositing on the rocks around the edge of the pond. All of a sudden there was a splosh as a frog leapt out of the pond to try and catch the Hawker. He missed, hence the sheepish expression! 
Sometimes I just like to lie on the bench and look up at the sky, it's nice and restful. As I was watching a party of Swifts screaming overhead I noticed this lovely cloud formation, so.....decided get the camera and click........

Jenny we are so much alike! I love hostas and have about as many...maybe 4 now!! I only know the name of one...but I'll have to look it up! haha! If I sat here long enough I'd remember it but....it's bedtime! Love the sheepish look...glad he missed. Tell him to go eat a mosquito. And of course the sky! I love a beautiful sky!
Thanks girlfriend!
Hey Wren
I discovered a pond half way (or down!) Pen Hill the other day. It's fenced off to stop the sheep and cows getting in but it is accessible. I might try to spend some time and see what is there. Henry also has a pond at Colesbourne Park. Nicve cloud formation!

Hi Eve
This is becoming apparent! (-: Don't know the names of mine either, except....Hosta 1,2 and 3! (-:
Don't get mozzies here, but I wouldn't mine tossing a slug or 5 billion it's way!
Hi Adgi
That pond might have Great crested Newts in it. I once saw one on the road down to the bridge. Let me know what's there when you next go. Maybe some good dragonflies....
love

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I see that you do love green also :-) My favorite! 3 hostas is 2 more than I have. The tree mine were under died and now the hostas are looking pretty sad without the shade. May have to dig them up. I like that frog...cute, even if sheepish. That cloud is lovely...so wispy! I'll be back again...you have a very nice blog.
Hi Jen,
Yes I like taking photos of cloud as well you can get some great formations. That one you have taken, I look at it for a while and it reminds me of those white hats that the Swiss Milk Maids wear. If that makes sense.
