It’s three years now since I started this blog. One of my earliest posts was a photograph of creamy Blackthorn blossoms on the ditch. Today just a short walk up the lane reveals again the quiet beauty of our wildflowers. While the coconutty gorse dominates and is blooming all over the hill, along the ditches there are small splashes of colour. Getting in closer (some of these are really tiny) there are ladybirds competing for space along the grassy highway, and bees busily buzzing…….
Just beautiful…
Thank you so much Amanda:~))
Все такое нежное! очень красиво!
Hi there, many thanks:~))
Beautiful as always , the wild side of our hedgerowss so colourful with robert herbs and cowslips and the ladybirds have the time of their life with plenty of louse at the moment. Congratulations with your third blogging year.
Thanks Janneke…..enjoy the ladybirds too…..
I love this time of year. The bursts of colour, blossom and fresh green leaves are such a wonderful contrast from the bare browns of winter. Happy Blogging Birthday. Philippa xx
Thanks Philippa…..appreciate your visits:~))
I looked back to your earlier post and was surprised at how much your style has changed over time – although of course the pictures are as good as ever.
Beautiful macro pictures x

Hi Catherine, congratulations on 3 years, and if that bumble bee is anything to go by, they were three good years! Wonderful post and enjoy your spring, but don't make me too jealous as we zoom from autumn to winter !
