Although on some books Autumn doesn't officially start until Sept 21st, the birds are already gathering in trees and on telegraph wires. I watched flocks of starlings picking at the elderberries, no doubt in preparation of the migration to come. Even the Canada geese came flying in to land at the water park and here's me thinking they stay in our country all year round. Maybe I'm wrong.

Our plans have changed yet again. We are still waiting on a parcel to arrive at Christine's so its yet another day here at the park. I'm a little loath to admit that we have already been on this mooring for over 48 hours, but whether the parcel arrives tomorrow or not, we are definitely going to move. On a plus side we haven't had to battle the strong winds today. Even my begonias came a cropper when a particularly strong gust blew them over and very nearly tipped them over the side. Thank goodness I shot out when I heard the noise on the roof. They are now located in a more sheltered place.
