the last daffodil
we saw this daffodill in kew gardens about a month ago. it was standing proud whilst all the other daff’s had died. well done sir (though i imagine it too has been chopped down by now)
happy birthday lady
here is poochy (esther and kezia’s granny). it was her birthday yesterday so we had a big slap up sunday roast and birthday cake.
bluebells
finally, we caught the bluebells in full bloom.
we went a couple of weeks ago and then there were none. Last week they were just starting, but yesterday there was plenty of them
it was a cloudy day, so the colours don’t show up fantastically i’m afraid
of course the bluebells always look bluer from the other side. And this carpetted wood was not open to walkers. oh well.
looking back at the archives we did this in the same place last year too
