Out comes the sun, and out come the bumble bees. Flowering currant a much needed food source for bees at this time of year.

Sarcococca with added rain.
Such a big scent from weedy little flowers, in winter, in the shade, loves moisture, not eaten by slugs . Can vouch that it also copes with neglect. No wonder it's doing well in my garden...

Actual sunshine this morning. I liked how it highlighted all the moss on the old apple tree.

My fruit trees have a lot of lichen growing on them. I'm not sure it bothers the trees much, and is a good indicator of clean air, so they are very welcome. I saw a robin with a beak full of lichen, so I guess nesting is underway.

Dogwood. I must plant some more, it's such a lovely splash of colour at this time of year.

A rummage in the charity shop & I came home with this little bear, & the soap dish he is standing on. I love recycled glass. Not sure it will be a good soap dish,but it makes an excellent bear holder ;)
I just liked his face.

The daffodils from my cutting garden are coming in now. Always cheerful. The recycled green glass pineapple vase was a find from the recycling centre shop.

The land is just full of water. The cows were joined by a group of egrets, wading about. . I couldn't tell from this distance if they were little egrets or cattle egrets. Assume the later, since they are with the cows...

I usually have the company of a robin when I am weeding the veg beds. Today I had two. I'm guessing by the calm way they were with each other, that this is a pair. #robin #birds #allrobinsarecalleddave #robinpair #smalljoys
Happy Imbolc. We have made it through the darkest weeks of winter, spring beckons. A time for hope.

Out walking. Got soaked. But the skies are beautifully dramatic.

Another day, another weather warning.. looking at it from the safety of a cafe, coffee with a friend.

The crocuses are back. A little joy amongst all this weather. Important to me as the person who planted them with me is no longer with us #smalljoys
Riverford have started a campaign to get the supermarkets to treat fruit and veg farmers fairly - just the basics - like buying what they said they would buy, pay what they said they would pay. Worth signing the petition I think . link to gov petition at the end. getfairaboutfarming.co.uk
