Forsythia in gloriously golden full bloom on a very grey walk this morning!

The delicate puffball flowers of Mimosa are hard to capture, but this tree was a lovely splash of colour on another grey morning walk!

Some honest to goodness sunshine today, I've got my windows open and everything! Saw this lovely Scilla, sheltering at the foot of a wall on my walk today.

Still no sign of the sun but the Cherry Plum is finally beginning to bloom in our local hedgerows, my few walks will start to get brighter from now on ❤️

Early morning walk as it's actually dry for the moment! Saw this Muscari, or Grape Hyacinth, along the way... a sure sign that Spring is just round the corner.

One of the hidden gems at this time of year are the flowers of Sweet Box, small and unassuming but they exude the most luscious honey scent imaginable ❤️

A little bit of sun today has brought these crocus into bloom ❤️

That is a little win Naomi, a gift to yourself of self care and calm ❤️

Miserable, constant rain again today, so here's some golden Mahonia in the sunshine from last weekend to brighten the day.

It's a grey, damp, unpleasant sort of a day, so this coral coloured Chaenomeles was a welcome spot of cheerfulness ❤️

Out for the first time in ages and it's raining, but there is still beautiful nature to see - Iris.

A misty autumn walk this morning, saw these beautiful borage flowers along the way.

Fat colourful Fuchsias, seen on a damp walk this morning.

So good to be able to go out and walk in the mornings again, still some flowers to see, like this Escallonia I saw today!

I've been trapped in the house for most of the past 5 weeks, while we've had work done, but it's finished now, and today I feel released! Here's some gorgeous Snowberry in Autumn sunshine to celebrate.

Slightly less breezy walk this morning and still gloriously sunny. Saw this marvellously coloured Pink Pagoda Rowan along the way!

Another week stuck in the house but a gorgeous sunny walk this morning before the rain arrived! Very windy conditions make photography a challenge but I liked this White Dead Nettle seen along the way.

Not been out all week due to commitments at home so I was determined to walk this morning! Saw this lovely bright Everlasting Pea, a welcome dash of colour on a dull Autumn day!!

I know, I put a jacket on this morning then nearly turned straight round and headed back inside to take it off again! I was a bit warm by the time I got back but not too bad 👍

Breeze coming up from the Med I understand... It's weird after the freshness and damp of the past few days!

You and your volunteers do such wonderful work Judy, thank you to all of you. Has the boardwalk been repaired now?

An overcast, but curiously warm, walk this morning. Saw this beautiful Passion Flower along the way.

Just realised this morning that I called these Autumn Crocus when I posted yesterday, they are, of course, Autumn Cyclamen! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Gorgeous morning for a walk, still beautifully warm but Autumn is definitely here now. Leaves are turning and these Autumn Crocus are in all the hedgerows.

Some lovely Orange Hawkweed, or Fox and Cubs if you prefer, seen on a walk this morning.

I know this is a Geranium of some sort, but there are so many I have no idea which one... very pretty though.
#flowers #walking #MentalHealth

Definitely green 💚

This is beautiful, so calming ❤️

Some beautiful Travellers Joy, seen on my 'travels'!

To start the new week here's a Japanese Anemone, also called Windflower, and they were certainly dancing in the breeze this morning!
