My last post I was praising the fact that Spring was here, I guess that jumped the gun a bit with that comment. The reason being as I drew the curtains back this morning I was greeted with fresh snow on the distant hills, as you can see in my first photo, but the sky was clear & the sun was shining, so partial Spring maybe.
The next shot I would like to have had on here for Easter, but even the Mallards are later than most places for having their ducklings. This Mum was proud of her youngster, but the sad fact is she most probably started of with six or eight babes & the Crows & Jackdaws, that we have in abundance, have taken the others.
Just to show that the Hares of the other day were not just a freak & that they really are staying with us, the next shot shows they were there first thing this morning, though just two now, guess three is a crowd.
Lastly to cheer us all up as we go out on to our drive we are greeted by proper Spring flowers giving us a bounty of colour that will put a smile on any frozen face.
