The delicate flowers of this maple are similar in colour to the newly unfolded leaves.

A closer view of a few of the flowers on the bushes which featured in the previous post.

The blackthorn bushes at the edge of Barley Field recently.

From a distance, the flowers turned the bushes to a ghostly white.

A few of the pink flowers among the blue forget-me-nots of a plant growing by one of the entrances to the Smestow Valley Railway Walk.

Tiny reed bunting hiding in a reed bed by the canal at Compton.

There were still frosty mornings at the start of the month, here decorating the growing leaves of a nettle.
