Today was hot in the garden, and the pond was alive - tadpoles, newts, a waterlily about to flower, and two damsel flies which I photographed on a
friend's hand.We had a picnic with fresh handpicked lettuce, played frisby and drove the little car around, and tried to count how many tadpoles had grown legs and turned into froglets.
Somehow, the lack of rain meant that the children didn't really need to water the garden much.
