Old Speckled Hen Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Mr P is resplendent in his courting headgear and is doing his noisy hoola in the garden In between bobbing at each other and mutual preening, our rooks are carrying twigs in their beaks and repairing their winter battered rookery. The daffodils are coming through, the ground is soft, the sun is out and it's a beautiful day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Yes,it certainly is I have been sorting my seeds this moring,making lists of what I need & getting ready to sow my first crops. My Daffs are up,the Snowdrops look wonderful & I just had a young Stag saunter down the road past the house - spring is most certainly here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Not at all spring-like here - dark and raining A few bulbs are poking their heads through in the garden, but no blooms yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 A couple of inches of snow here, but beautiful blue skies and warm sunshine too I heard my first cock chaffinch at home yesterday, so spring can't be far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 The birds are singing merrily and my DS is spring cleaning his room, which is quite shocking because he normally the biggest slob going, but he has been at it for over 2 days now There must be something in the air Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 The birds are definitely getting more frisky and singing a lot this week, both in the garden and at our wildlife site. And the bluebells are poking their heads through the soil too! Spring is definitely in the air even if today it is rather damp and foggy here.

bluekarin Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 It was a lovely day here too, apart from the ill son I went into town with my two daughters wearing just a cardi (yes, was wearing other clothing too ) but no coat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 A heavy frost today, but yesterday was lovely and sunny, snowdrops are out and the odd crocus popping through, and I heard a great-tit for the first time - spring is definitely on the way!

earthmam1 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 The birds are singing merrily and my DS is spring cleaning his room, which is quite shocking because he normally the biggest slob going, but he has been at it for over 2 days now There must be something in the air Love maybe Its miserable here at the moment - raining and the weather forcast says it in the day. I think a journey to Stockbridge to cheer me up is in order sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 There must be something in the air The only thing in the air here today is snow and fog I am extremely jealous of those of you who have sunshine and are walking around with no coats on. Would you be so kind as to please share your lovely spring weather with me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
