Autumn comes around once more, swallows gone, snow on the mountains, frost some mornings in some places - the cycle goes ever on!

Its May, seen the first Swallows, heard the first Cuckoo, but it is still frosting at night!
Have baby Sparrows and Bluetits and Robins in the garden, but the random cold continues (there is still snow-fall on the summits of the mountains!)
Oh well, I heard a while back, when it hits Absolute Zero in Oban (20miles down the coast), the locals put an extra T-shirt on! (but they are a wee bit softer!!)

Would you believe it!! Two days ago I was whinging about how warm it was and now there's huge soggy flakes falling out of the sky, right to sea level!
