Winter hellebore

There’s something nice to see in the garden, although they generally flower in the spring.
Daffodil leaves are peeking through the ground but it’s so wet at the moment that any sort of gardening is on hold.
The chicken enclosure is getting very muddy too, so we bought some Landscaping Bark to go down. They were quite pleased with this and when I next checked they had dug it into heaps so they could get to the mud. Hmmm.
