Felt a bit like it today as I began to prune the roses. They are beginning to shoot.

Oh I haven’t seen any celandines yet, but catkins, snowdrops and the odd daffodils. My camellias bushes are also flowering also.

Definitely very springlike today. Walking down the lane this morning I used my Merlin app to identify the birds that were singing. For anyone who doesn’t have the app I’d recommend it. Extremely easy to use and very accurate.

Had pale lemon primroses here in Shropshire for a month or two, plus a tiny patch of snowdrops. Also had some roses until I had a brutal pruning session last week (Lady of Shalott from David Austin, if anyone's interested - never seems to run out of energy!).

🤞🙏 It’s lovely here in Essex today, bit chilly but lots of sun! Long may it last.

Lovely!!
Spring is my absolute favourite time of year. Any early flowers or birds preparing for nest building, bring it on.
Let’s have more pics please 🙏🏾

They do! But disappear underground before summer.

Except when they take over my garden! Spread like wildfire.

I love celandines.

Is Spring springing? These were radiating golden sunshine on my walk to and from the shops! Always cheer me up!
