We are now in meteorological spring but still walking the woods through the mud, although its not quite as bad as it was. Just longing for a bit of warm sunshine. Nature is definitely starting to wake up now after the winter. Primroses are starting to flower, that’s a plant we are lucky to have in abundance in the wood, and the Bluebells are starting to show their greenery.
Primroses
Rooks have been nest building for a couple of weeks now and they are so noisy. If you stand and watch them they can be quite entertaining as they try and steal twigs from a neighbours nest, causing loud shouting which everyone then starts to join in.
I caught a flash of red out of the corner of my eye and spied a beautiful male Bullfinch warily watching me.
Always seen in pairs, I knew the misses would be near by.
A touch of Spring.
