In the garden this week

We have had beautiful weather, yesterday and today - blue skies, lots of sunshine and breezy. It's still not quite warm enough for me to work in the garden but I had a quick look around and took a few photos.

Please click on each photo to enlarge it.


I found a clump of primroses




and some crocus, fully out




also the hellebore - these are purple and there is a pink one behind it but I have no white, which of course are the beautiful "Christmas roses" - I would love to have some of those.




Robin was helping himself to lunch




and also Mrs Blackbird




A few days before I had found the frogs being "friendly" in our pond (look away now if you are easily shocked)!



and today there was a newt basking in the sunshine in the shallows


note the frog spawn in the bottom left corner!

And, finally, our first daffodils
