Yes, quite a few bees today and mating dragonflies. I was watching one laying eggs in the water too.

Unfortunately they moved two years ago and the new neighbours got rid of the pond

Re: Home Gardens
All lovely original gardens.My garden is 55yeqrs olds, more like a Cottage Garden
and many plants have seeded themselves
The front part is on the Main Road behind a brick wall and many men lean on the wall to view the flowers.
I once found a pair of men's underpants in the shrubs!!

Mine hasn't got bells and whistles or even running water - I call it a 'wild life' pond.
No fish, but it's full of stuff, tadpoles, newts, skaters, slugs, snails and puppy dogs tails. They must love the dirty green effect
Funny you should say about dragonflies, I rarely see them around here. It's more damselflies.
