A daffodil growing by a path in the wooded end of East Park, and a bunch growing together in a front garden, showing earlier this month. More signs that spring is now well on the way.

Furry outer covering of gorse flower buds half-hidden in the fearsome spikes of the leaves.

Lichen growing on the trunk of a bush by a quiet country lane. A close-up view gave a picture dominated by shades of green and yellow.

One of the bullrushes on the pond at Northycote Farm, its disintegrating seed head backlit by the morning sun. The out of focus yellow in the background is a patch of daffodils on the far shore of the pond.

The full opening of lesser celandine flowers is for me one sign that spring is finally really arriving.

These were in a sheltered front garden in the first week of March.

Great tit and blue tit grabbing some seeds from the same feeder at Northycote Farm.
