The cherry plums have been flowering for a while now. Crocuses are
beginning to show in the front wall. Daffs are just about out. Mum's
bees are out whenever it warms up a bit.

AND there's definatly something stirring in the pond!

About a mile away from us is a roundabout over the M4 and on the

Last year it came into leaf mid to late Feb.
Well I went passed it today for the first time since we came back
from our Holls and it is well into leaf and quite green, must have
started about 2 weeks ago.
That makes it about 3 weeks earlier than last year, and that was
earlier than normal.
I must check for frogs spawn.
