Bought and spread 8 more bags of gravel on the widened path by the rockery.
Needed to pick a few peaches but to get to them I had to do some serious weeding alongside the patio wall. Managed to clear enough of the weeds to reach the tree
Spotted Bess trying to pick the apples off a heavily cropping tree. She stands on her hindlegs and snatches at the apples, usually pulling of part of the branch as well as the apple. Then she brings it to me to throw for her. I don't mind her having the tiny fruit but not the ones on my favourite trees. Found a prop for the branch and propped it up out of her reach.
Cut back some goat willow that's overshadowing a bit of garden and chopped up the branches for mulching the path.
Spotted hazelnuts nearby - hope the squirrels don't!
