Fairies on a rainy day
Hidden amongst the ferns and sheltering from the rain under curled up hellebore leaves are tiny fairies. The fairies sit waiting for the sun to come out so they can help the spiders mend their webs and dry off the wings of bumble bees.
These winged creatures are so small and shy that unless you are patient, still and quiet you are unlikely to ever see one.
