This is the evil tree which does nothing but drop leaves into our garden.
Earlier this week the whole family took to the garden to clear leaves (Wednesday)
Now all the leaves are back again, with a vengence!
At least some trees barely have any leaves left to drop
There have been a lot of ladybugs around, presumably looking for access to our bedroom where they will spend the winter!
The fish are getting ready to hibernate too
As are the frog, this is Tiddler the tiniest frog (you can't tell from this photo) watching us as we cleared the leaves
Talking of losing battles, this is the foxes attempt to completely undermine the shed at the end of the garden!
