After the remnants of Hurricane Lee swept us with gusty winds and heavy rain for a couple of days, it was lovely to walk along the coast in the sunshine on Thursday. And that warm sunshine also brought out the little flying creatures to enjoy the now-flowering Ivy bushes. Migrating Red admirals sucked at their nectar and an assortment of flies, wasps, hoverflies and bees wallowed in the pollen. My favourites were the Ivy bees that only emerge at this time of year to enjoy this early autumn flowering treat.
