August 2014 |
 |
|
A dragon fly basking in the hot
sunshine in my garden on a warm and sunny August day. |
|
After a dry and sunny June & July, things
turned much wetter in August. Days remained warm and reasonably
sunny but there were many unusually cold nights during the second
half of the month. |
