Flowering Currant

Forget-me-nots

Spring hammock

14 April and it's sunny but not warm enough to tempt this ladybird out of her hammock

April bees

Pulmonaria is a great source of nectar in early spring.
The bees seem to love this.

Fritillary

I planted some fritillary bulbs in a shady part of the garden last autumn.
To my surprise and delighted they are coming up this year.

Cherry blossom

The small cherry trees planted a year and a half ago are blossoming,
but only where the muntjacs cannot reach

Early April flowers on the meadow

Primrose

Celandine

The meadow in March

This is after I strimmed it.
