Had a more domesticated day today, washing, gardening and a tip run, with a trip to the shop in between! I did a bit more trimming in the back.

That is the before and the next is the after, doesn't look a lot different but filled another two bags with prunings!

Then I decided to dig a bed just in front of the bird feeder, it looked like this:

I imagined that would  an easy task, but the ground was hard and like lumps of clay, I think the worms got a shock, partly because they could suddenly actually move and partly because they were blinded by the light!I didn't manage the whole bed.

When I was pruning the trees I disturbed loads of earwigs and a few of these guys, who I think must be tree dwelling spiders as I hadn't seen them in a garden before.
