Bluebells!

I went for a walk with a friend to blow away some cobwebs. The weather has been sunny and clear all day, and I was looking forward to some lovely golden light over the bluebells before sunset.
Unfortunately it got a little bit hazy, but the smell of the bluebells was amazing.
Even without the rich shafts of golden it was definitely worth it.

Spring is coming!

In the last couple of months the sun comes and goes taking the temperature up and down with it. Today was no different, luckily I caught the tail end of the nice weather.

I took my 'new to me' DSLR on a short walk - I have some way to go to get used to the differences between my bridge camera and this proper, grown-up one.

Here are a couple of shots and a link to a few more on Flickr HERE.

Cygnets

I have been hunting down cygnets for weeks. I made several unsuccessful visits to various locations and sadly, a nest that was being watched for me was attacked by a minx the day after the cygnets hatched, but today I found some, by chance, in a park in St Albans.

Here are a couple, the rest can be found on flickr here:  St Albans cygnets

Garden Bluebells.

I have a patch of bluebells two feet square - who needs Ashridge anyway?

The bluebells in Ashridge are bursting open. They will be gorgeous in about three days!

Spring daffodils

I believe these daffodils were planted by Marie Curie as a memorial garden.
It is in Gadebridge, Hemel Hempstead.
