curiouswombatMy favourite patch of colour in the garden, to brighten up what is a grey and gloomy morning here.
Caravaggio, for his many fans 😁
And a picture I took over in Peel on Saturday when I was going searching on the beach in the picture for scallop shells. As you can see the castle has the builders in!
The little cove at the back of the castle is called the Fenella Beach and is the best place I know to collect scallop shells - the shells from the local scallop fishing are dumped back out to sea but the tides and currents bring a lot of them back to this one small spot.
Why was I collecting scallop shells? I was leading a family service at church on Sunday where our theme was Pilgrimage. It took me about 10 minutes to collect the 40 or so needed to give one to each member of the congregation.

I had them for the first time in my garden, planted in-between my veggies to attract pollinators, cover the soil and generally be pretty, and am still enjoying some of them; they're so pretty! In German they're called "Lion's yawlets", which is also a cute name.
