Spring

I can see signs of new life everywhere, tiny shoots in the earth and now some larger shoots appearing. There are a few buds on the trees and one morning this week I watched two birds doing a kind of courtship dance. Unluckily for the male, the female flew off as she was not impressed!

Today is rather grey and cold, but yesterday and some other days, the sun has been shining and you can feel a little warmth which promises more warmth later. I love this time of year as it promises us so much and is so inspiring.

Have you noticed any signs of new growth around you? What have you seen? Have the signs you see inspired you?

Here is a photo of a group of bulbs showing their leaves now in my garden.
