#HowHill yesterday
A ragged faded farewell to summer... one last #Swallowtail at #HowHill today 1/9/25
Wherries 'Hathor' and 'Solace' at #HowHill yesterday
It's been a good summer for Swallowtail butterflies (this one at #HowHill today) but...

A Four Spotted Chaser hanging on to a reed stem, How Hill Nature Reserve.

There were probably a hundred or so of them throughout the reed beds around the reserve.

#HowHill today

I failed to find time to add a further update when we completed our cruise on Tuesday. From #Neatishead we passed The Ice House, one of the impressive #houses at #Irstead Shoals.

We moored at #HowHill where we spent an hour walking around the #gardens. We then proceeded to #LudhamBridge where we moored for the night, eating at The Dog where a couple of guys turned up and entertained us for half an hour. It was possibly the best impromptu #entertainment I've ever experienced. The photograph does not indicate how much #laughter there was and how we enjoyed #singing along.

We left our #mooring just before 06:45 as we needed to be back in #Stalham for a meeting at 10:00 and needed to pick up some stuff from home before that.
