Try and tell that to the frogs, bumblebees and ladybirds. The
blackbirds are going mad too. It'll come as a shock if it goes cold
again. Then again, we nearly always get a cold spell at some point
during the real spring. Last April is an example.


They'll cope Nick, they are British after all!

Just come back from a walk and the wind was surprisingly nippy, given how
warm it felt earlier.
Mind you it was coming straight off the snow covered eastern slopes of the
Hameldown Ridge, quite a lot still up there in the gullies. Nearest natural
snow patch to me is about 400 metres away, it looks like sugar now, just
like the Alps in August :-)

My Ma says there is always a touch of spring in a Devon winter.

Oooh Ah!

Plenty more dry weather to come this week, enjoy, and make the most of it!
