New Beginnings

 Taken on a recent day trip.  Daffodils in a local church. Every year this church has a splendid display.

Trees

 A few shots from my walks in Hatfield Forest. Hatfield is an ancient woodland and has many interesting trees, I never tire of photographing these trees as the seasons go by.

Garden Visitor

A couple of visitors to my garden. The blackbird is living close by, I have never seen a bird with so much attitude. It steals our cat’s food and is in no hurry to walk away, I am keeping an eye out for him.

Pasque Flowers Royston

Carol and I took a walk out to Royston to see the Pasque flowers. This year’s display seems a little stunted probably due to the colder weather. Whilst I was shooting the flowers I came upon an Emperor moth, it was behaving in a very sluggish way again maybe the cold was not to it’s liking.

Springtime at Hatfield Forest

 Today the weather was perfect for a great walk with my camera. Everything is coming back to life.

A fogy day in Hatfield Forest

I went out today for my exercise walk in the forest. The ground is now firming up nicely. It amazes me how quickly the ground is drying out. Only a week ago my walk round the forest was more like a slide than a walk, water & mud everywhere. I recently bought a pair of walking poles, they certainly allowed me to walk efficiently & with safety.
