Today in the garden...

Went out early with the watering can to water the roses and more vulnerable plants.  We are practising "laziness re-wilding", in consequence the lawn is full of ragwort, and the ragwort is covered in yellow and black striped caterpillars (which I believe one day will become cinnabar moths).  Bees are scrambling all over the lavender and the air is full of insects.  Today's butterfly: meadow brown https://www.wildlifetrusts.org/wildlife-explorer/invertebrates/butterflies/meadow-brown

This morning here was cabbage whites and a skipper, and a small, long-legged spider I haven't tried to identify yet.

What a pretty moth. Re-wilding is good, no matter how it happened!
