The Old Forge (Thursday 13th April 2017)

Every year I blip the new leaves of my variegated Sycamore Maple that sits in the centre of the tiny woodland garden, sometimes from the study window, sometimes from the ground, like this one.

Part of me is itching to return to places I have membership for - Slimbridge WWT, Marwell Wildlife, Hawk Conservatory - but as it is the Easter holidays I know they will all be crowded and full of little monsters, so I have been busying myself at home and watching the garden come alive and building works very slowly progress.
