May is out

..well it is round here, and looking at the current Beeb and Met Office forecasts the threat of snow over Easter seems to have receded - yay!  So get clout casting, UK blippers.

All I managed today was a short and gentle amble down by the stream to see if any wildflowers were out.  There was lots of blackthorn (prunus spinosa) - as here - also celandines and even a rogue patch of Spanish bluebells that, if not exactly out, were at least showing quite a lot of blue.  Very early for them, but it's a particularly sheltered spot and they're always out here first.  Most (English) bluebells won't be out for at least another month or more.

And yes, I am feeling a lot better than yesterday, so thank you for all your kind comments.  All I need now is a little more energy and another good night's sleep should fill up the tanks.

Have a good evening  xx
