It's here! In our garden the first herald of spring is the emergence of blossom on our old plum tree and today the first blossom has opened! In a week or so the whole tree will be a cloud of white (barring more snow / frost / windy weather!) I'm feeling spring-like, my cold is disappearing and the sun is shining. Hoooorraaayyyy!! roll on warmer days, longer evenings, newborn lambs, primroses and Easter eggs!










This picture is just so beautiful. The individual flower made me smile. Yep its on its way. Oh to be outside and feel the warmth of the sun. Bliss. Thank you for the little ray of sunshine.

Thank god for the sun today, it is wonderful here today, it has been so dull, it makes everyone feel flat and yukky, so today is great, and a lovely image of your blossom :)

What a wonderful photograph, full of promise of the lovely Spring ahead. Made me want to throw open the windows and clean, clean, clean - bit chilly still though - i might wait a few days!
