There comes a time in late summer when the swallows begin to gather. Their chatter fills the air as they practise those soaring twists and turns in preparation for their long journey south.
Today was that day or maybe they could sense the first real change in atmospheric pressure for weeks!
The turning of the seasons has certainly been evident this week — gentler heat, softer light and those heavy morning dews.
It does seem a little early to me, but I’m welcoming it with open arms! There’s something rather lovely about this time of year.
