| | Jez's Spinney Yes i have just been out in the rain to feed the numerous Siskins and Chaffs as well as the regular visitors to the feeders and i have spotted my first flower in my meadows-Joy, it's a Primrose. I thought contain yourself Jez, don't take a photo of it as it could be a primrose taken almost anywhere and i have an abundance of them on the top banking in the garden, wait until others come up then start a new thread but i just had to holla about it!!! This may sound saft to a lot of you? But when i put my weary head down to rest at night and think about how my meadows may turn out, I get butterflies like that of my childhood days on Christmas Eve! It's been like this for a year now and I'm so relieved that this sole Primrose can stop this anxious restlessness I have been getting
Good times to roll on.
Watch this space to see how the meadows unfurl.
Jez

| | | Re: Jez's Spinney Thank you Naomi, lets hope so! I can't wait to start taking snaps and just crossing flowers off the check list, as well as sitting back and admiring the view and dicovering what kind of Fauna will come and join the dance?!

| | | Re: Jez's Spinney Thanks Betty
I will be log booking and databasing as much flora & Fauna as i possibly can when I'm away from work enjoying the tranquility of home life. Tranquility? well maybe not as all being well the Severn Valley Railway will be back up and running come the Easter Hols. Nostalgic then!!!
