2023 - Seen my First............ - Veggie - 06-01-2023

Share with us the First time you see, feel, taste or experience  something in 2023. 
It can be as simple as the first snowdrop, butterfly or slug or eat your first Easter egg. First picnic or BBQ and so on. 

For example, today I saw my first Woodpecker of 2023 on the peanut feeder.

I saw my first sparrowhawk of 2023 numerous times today,hovering, fairly low close to where I was walking Kato. I didn't see it dive and catch anything but will watch for it in future as it seems to have a patrol and hover strategy over a given area! Cool

Me too! I saw one on the way to work today, hovering over the field.

I was at my daughters in London for a few days and saw my first flowering cherry tree.

I saw my first glimps of sunshine.....not really but it darn well feels like it. Sad
Saw a red kite soaring on the way to the shops yesterday.

I saw an afternoon tea for the first time this year today! It was lovely and I will not have another for a while now. Love a day out with the girls Smile

Last year I spotted a shrub somewhere that had very early pink flowers. Smile I looked it up and it was Viburnum x Bodnantense Dawn. I had to have one and bought a small plant online. Wink This morning I noticed its first pink flowers (It doesn't look much now in among wallflowers) so I am looking forward to it growing and hopefully giving me a good show next year! Cool
