A double scarlet Pomegranade buds for bloom.  A bunting appears about the walks: this is a very rare bird at Selborne.  The solstitial chafers swarm by thousands in my Brother’s grounds.  They begin to flie about sun-set, but withdraw soon after nine, & probably settle on the trees, to feed & to engender.  My chamber at S. Lambeth is much annoyed with gnats.
