Summer?

Certainly felt like summer today.

We started a new routine at my exercise class this morning. By far this is my favourite routine. Flows nicely with lots of tai chi at the beginning.

The plants in the garden just seem to have sprouted overnight. The magnolia has opened, the cherry blossom is beautiful, azaleas are looking good too. The perennials are promising a good display in the months ahead.

I spotted a few butterflies fluttering around and only managed to get this one photo. The white of their wings seem to dominate. It wasn't until I looked on the computer I realised how much they actually blend in with the trees foliage.
