Let me take you on a little walk in my surrounding area. Wrap up warm, the sun maybe out but it's still quite chilly. Ready? Let's go...
Holly in my front garden, you can just see our house chimneys in the background |
The centre of our village |
Blossom is out! |
The difference between the blue and the green was so striking |
I just love looking up too |
As I only had my hone with me I was not able to grab a great capture of the red kites up above |
Traditional British post box in the sun |
The sun allowed for the reflections to be striking |
Everywhere now the daffodils are out |
The catkins are budding |
I couldn't help but bring a few catkins home |
Whilst in my garden I noticed next to the snowdrops the narcissi were out in bloom and the hyacinth will not be long now |
After a sunlit walk I brought the catkins indoors |
Pop back in a day or two and I will share with you my latest walk following in the trail of Agatha Christie and where she used to live...
Now I must get back to knitting that jumper...
Joining in with Karen looking for those sunlit moments in the week
which make these grey wet days just that much more manageable.
♥ Hope the week brings you many sunlit moments ♥
Stunning photos - love the bright colors in the sunshine.
ReplyDeleteThank you JoAnn
DeleteThat was a lovely walk. Your spring seems to be advancing at the same rate as ours, as daffodils are starting to come out, and I have see Pussy Willows on my walks too. I look forward to seeing more scenes from your village.
ReplyDeleteShhh yes!!! Pusey willie. I couldn't for the life of me think what they were called!!! Thanks for that. pond side x
DeleteLovely photos :) I think your Spring is slightly ahead of ours but only just. I can't wait, it's my favourite time of year, I love seeing all the bulbs starting to sprout and flower :)
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more Evelyn. Spring bulbs popping up everywhere is wonderful. You can see why it's such an inspiring time of the year full of hope
DeleteWonderful photos! Your spring is much ahead of ours (we have 30 - 40 cm of snow) and your sky is so much bluer than ours at this time of the year. :)
ReplyDeleteThe reflecting water looks lovely, and so do the daffodils.
Wishing you a sunlit new week! xx
That's a lots of snow Sara. My children would love to have that for a while x
DeleteLovely photos, and you had sunshine..........here in South West we've had howling winds and rain to-day so good to be able to look at your pictures and enjoy your walk.
ReplyDeleteMaureen
We have been lucky to have the odd sunshine blue sky hour peaking out here and there and they are so much craved and needed. The I errudi f feeling is still however of a wet winter ...
DeleteBeautiful, it's getting very Springy. x
ReplyDeleteIt is Karen and that makes me excited
DeleteWhat a beautiful village. I have post box envy. We have those awful super boxes.
ReplyDeleteI can understand that Jen. We also have in my opinion some even more gorgeous oldie worldly postboxes that are sunk into brick walls. Must post a photo soon for you to see
DeleteHi, I am glad to find your blog. I like your village photos and the red post box; one of my favorite authors, Anthony Trollope, played a role in setting up the classic red post boxes when he worked for your postal system, as I recall.
ReplyDeleteI did not know that Terra. Off to find out more. I'm very glad you found me too. Welcome back often xxxx
DeleteLovely photos of spring like things, so cheerfulx
ReplyDeleteGlad you think so Michelle
DeleteBeautiful sites to see.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Meredith
Thank you Meredith
DeleteThanks for taking us along on your walk. Lots of signs of spring - the budding willows, the daffodils - it's all so welcome about now.
ReplyDeleteIt really is Lorrie welcome indeed
DeleteLovely photos of your walk and isn't everything in nature ahead of itself? There won't be any daffodils left for Easter at this rate. Well done on getting a shot of the red kite. We get a lot of them now in Mid-Wales and I always love seeing them. Such magnificent birds!
ReplyDeleteI am determined to capture the red kite properly. They are becoming a bit of s nuisance here. It was here they re released them some years ago as they were in danger of extinction. No fear of that now! Sometimes when we BBQ I'm a tad nervous!
DeleteSuch a lovely walk along with you Selma! Gorgeous photos of your pretty area. I like the one of the water and trees growing alongside it.
ReplyDeleteWendy
Thank you Wendy. It was a good day to get outside that's for sure
DeleteOh, my, you have daffodils blooming. They are gorgeous. I enjoyed walking around your village with you, looking around as well as up at the beautiful sky!
