Rowan berries

The rowan tree in our garden is one of the few trees that were here when we moved in.  It is quite close to the pond - so perhaps its roots were disturbed during the construction, because we have been disappointed in previous years - we would see a few flowers, but almost no berries.

This year, there were many more flowers, and now we have a decent crop of berries.

It's been a rather lovely day, plenty of sunshine, some wind.  W has mowed most of the lawn, and tended to the pond.  We need to consider whether we can rig up a net over the pond to catch the autumn leaves this year.  

I did a huge pile of ironing this morning, and then got my flute out for the first time in almost three weeks.  I was a bit rusty!
