Greyduster

Nope! Seems like this has run its course for me, folks. Computer says no!

Oh no Greyduster. We lost a few others along the way because their lovely photos wouldn't work.

The earliest of my three rhododendron bushes has started to flower.

Oooh yes the hawthorn bushes look lovely when they are in flower. Takes me back to my childhood too .
All to often our council cut them back and we dont see them in abundance anymore

Sing a song of May time, sing a song of spring. Flowers are in their beauty, birds are on the wing.

A host of pretty bluebells.

That’s a lovely lilac May7. When we were out on Wednesday we passed a hawthorn bush in full flower and though the smell could never match a lilac, it took me straight back to my early childhood in an instant, walking in the lanes with my dad. I did take a photo but it doesn’t seem to reproduce well in small format.

Or smell them!

I think what amazes me, as an amateur photographer, is that a lot of the pictures on this thread almost seem 3D. You feel like you could put your hand out and touch them.

I wish you could all smell this beautiful white lilac in my garden this evening

Herons look completely out of place in a tree.

When you're dog tired and your eyes won't stay open and it's only 10 am.
