Re: Early Spring (or not)

I agree with Dan. Here in Kent we seem to have gone from Autumn into Spring and skipped Winter completely.

And it wasn't an isolated clump - they were everywhere! I may call into Northward Hill this weekend and see if there are any bluebells out - wouldn't surprise me in the least!

Dan also mentioned lesser celandine and this one was taken on the River Cray near Hall Place, Bexley on 9 March (not 9 May, which is what I entered in the photo details when uploading )...

P.s. the leaves in the second lesser celandine picture are stinging nettles that the flowers are growing through.
