Glorious May morning

It's wonderful. Sparkling sunshine - clear blue sky - and not freezing.

The magnolia is magnificent. How to do it justice ? Try to capture the whole tree ? Or concentrate on a single bloom against the lovely blue ? I went for the latter. Late but not forgotten.

And while I was out there, with the Canon, and filling the bird table, this little soul ignored me and looked down to see what I'd put out.

Human ? Am I bovvered ?

But this small tortoiseshell was not happy and only let me catch a quick shot before she fluttered away over the wall.

Edit : I went for a walk after my trip to M & S. Saw several flighty peacock butterflies, two orange tips, and some more small tortoiseshell butterflies. It's looking good. Now we have some sunshine, they're back.
