I'm horribly ill-disciplined. An all-or-nothing person. So I've decided on nothing.
I keep delaying posting till I know exactly what I'm talking about. I don't know why I think I need to know what I'm talking about. This is an informal blog, not a scientific one. It's bogging me down. So I'll close down. Not for ever. Just till autumn - enough time to shake off a misplaced sense of responsibility. I don't even like knowing what plants are. I just like looking at them. By . . . by . . . I'll try to stretch it till October . . . when I'll either feel free to say 'hey, this is a pretty plant, isn't it?' or return with enough stamina to check the Latin. All or nothing!
In the meantime . . . If you like things to read . . . do read The Squirrelbasket - loads there! If you like to see pictures of Dorset - go to Down by the Sea. Loads there! For the spirit of enquiry (!) go to In the Company of Plants and Rockss. Loads there! And for bugs - well, Bug Blog, of course!
If you want a little challenge - count hoverflies; return to your childhood and do an iSpy; how many kinds can you see? (If you want to pop back now and then to mention your sightings - do feel free to leave notes in the comment box. Come as often as you like. Maybe an accolade in the autumn for whoever has seen the most?)
