Seen my first Snowdrop - two actually - of 2023. Spring is on its way.

Most of our snowdrops are just peeping through the surface but I saw 2 small clumps today flowering.

First Crocus Tommasinianus in the lawn. Nearly stepped on them as they were under the rotary clothes line where I was pegging out some washing. Spring is definitely on its way.

Snowdrops for me whilst walking Kato in the woods!

Saw my first cock pheasant recently under my apple tree where I hang bird feeders, he’s eating the seeds that fall out. Also I’ve seen a common buzzard out back field.

I spotted a cock and hen pheasant in a courting ritual this morning, hopping in and out of a fence. She was playing hard to get!

I saw 2 in my curry this evening 

Saw my first celandine in the grass verge while out walking today.
