Why this time of year is a trial for hay fever sufferers. Different species of grass, all heavy with pollen. These were in the Barley Field recently.

After a spell of dry weather recently, a robin desperately probing the hard ground in search of something to eat. Possibly the determination of the search was because th bird had chicks needing feeding.

Flowers on the ends of the twigs of different conifers. On one tree the upstanding male flowers are surrounded by a cluster of female flowers, which have a shape already anticipating the cones they are become when fertilised.

Adult coot leading a lone chick on the water of West Park lake, pausing to feed it while staying close to the island.

The town end of Tramway Bridge across the Avon at Stratford, seen from the other bank of the river when the sky looked like there would be a storm shortly.

Red of cherry blossom, the flowers seen against a blue spring sky, or from closer up.
