A Hint of Spring


The first colour appeared in the garden last week with the crocuses coming into flower. Our daffodil buds have not yet opened, but there are some out on the roundabouts in Aylesbury. It was so nice to get out in the garden and tidy up after the snow. Pruned the roses, cleared some leaves and tried not to look at the moss reappearing on the lawn.
On my walk on Sunday there were still the odd few patches of snow left at the top of Wendover Woods. At the same time, bluebell shoots were sprouting under the trees. The mild spell is set to continue for the rest of this week.
