Himalayan Honeysuckle

A beautiful warm day and at 9.30pm we are still sitting outside  watching the  sky changing  colour at dusk and the  new moon rising.
The  extra is  three vapour trails in the north western sky.

This Leycesteria formosa (Himalayan honeysuckle, amongst other common names) is looking its best. The insects like the flowers and later when the shiny purple berries appear the black birds have a feast.
