docsquid Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I thought I'd start one. I took this photo today. At last, a sign of Spring. Has anybody else got some good Spring photos to cheer us up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docsquid Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 Ooh, grracee, that's lovely! It makes me so happy to see the flowers starting to come out - it really does feel like spring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I for one love the sights of spring time crocuses and snowdrops, daffs and tulips and mine is a spring garden with hundreds of daffs so hope we can see them soon. We have had 2 barn owls in from different places in the last 2 days - both starving due to lack of small rodents above the snow! - they are now with a person who is able to feed them and handle them and release them when they are ok. They are beautiful birds and I was honoured to have handled them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Speckled Hen Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 We've had three gorgeous days though today will be a little cooler. I've seen bees out but haven't seen a bumble yet. Bee on a crocus. Zwartbles lambs. Blue tit in one of our nest boxes, already doing nesting wiggles I can hear the chaffinch trilling his heart out which is another great sound of spring. Now, when the swifts get here it will be summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Cheating slightly as this is one I took this time last year...... Wild primroses against a Cotswold stone wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I have some of those primroses in my front garden. We liberated them from a soon to be Cornish building site about 15 years ago. I wouldn't have dug them up in any other circumstances, but we knew that they were about to get destroyed. They have spread over the years and been divided a few time, i will have to get a photo taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Licken Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) Snowdrops and aconites at Angelsey Abbey yesterday - we were working with the gardening team to split the bulbs and plant them out in one of the woodland areas to make new clumps. Sorry mods, but photobucket is now too clever for me and I can't resize it! Edited March 11, 2010 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
