We had two days of bright and sunny weather at the weekend. Great to get out and about.

The spring woodland flowers are well underway and we found the first bluebell starting to open. Mum gets quite excited when this happens!

We also found quite a few lesser cellendine shining in the sun and wood anemones.

In certain places there’s an abundance of wild garlic in leaf at the moment. It makes a really great smell when you brush past it. The flowers will take a bit longer.

And of course there’s the old favourites – the primrose and the daffodil.

The butterflies were out and about too. On our empty veggie patch they like to sun themselves on the warm soil and stones. We saw a comma and a peacock.
