As late Spring snows covers part of our garden, the early flowers take a cold battering. As it happened, our primula was no worse off in spite of the cold snap that remains even today (a week later.) Have a great safe week.

A snap of our home grown (Stargazer) lilies. These are just in from of our conservatory doors and so when we sit in there we can see them in their glory. In the evening the sweet aroma of these plants can be the most wonderful or unpleasant experience depending on whether you are allergic to its pollen. (as I am sometimes) 'Lily, the common name applied to herbaceous flowering plants belonging to the genus Lilium of the family Liliaceae. The genus contains between 80 and 100 species, native to the temperate areas of the Northern Hemisphere. Lilies are prized as ornamental plants, and they have been extensively hybridized.' www.britannica.com Enjoy full size.

As Easter weekend is upon us and Spring burst forth, our garden birds are in ecstasy. This Great Tit (Parus major) stood on one of our stone moles, was dancing up and down whilst flapping its wings rapidly, not to fly but clearly to impress. Ah, just found out that my wife saw this and another doing what the birds and bees do naturally, just moments before it landed on here. Enjoy too, the more frontal pose in the PiP. As usual, nice full size.
