My garnden is well and truly in spring mode with daffs, crocus,
snowdrops and many other flowers as well as blossom on nearby trees.
The black birds are building their nests and full bird song can be
heard in the mornings.

Now it seems a good chance that a prolong spell of very cold and
possibly snowy weather is on its way. Why can't it snow nature thinks
its still winter rather than spring. Same thing happened last year
with a brief spell of snow in march.

My garden is one thing but if this cold spell does turn out as bad as
it looks it could whats going to happen to other parts of the
ecosystem. Birds, insects, and crops seem to me be at risk of major
damage because they are too far ahead of themselves.
