Summer - it's gone

I'm afraid that summer has gone soon to be replaced by autumn - summer seemed to be rain, rain, rain and more rain..

The swifts have set of on their travels to Africa - these will soon be followed by the swallows and house martins.

In the garden the buddleia has faded and we have red berries on the honeysuckle and shrubs - a sure sign of colder months ahead ..

And soon another year will have passed --- !!
