Finally...spring!

What with one thing and another it has been a miserable winter and the recent wet weather has dampened spirits even further here at Quincewood Farm.  Thank goodness for the sunshine of the last few days.  I did my Tuesday voluntary kitchen thing today, picked up a bit of shopping afterwards and then headed home for a lovely long dog walk over the fields.

It was glorious out in the fresh air.  I soon took off my fleece and was more than comfortable wandering around in just a T-shirt.  My primary object was to seek out a couple of suitably secluded and suitably mature silver birch trees.  I didn't find any today, though, as The Woo met me halfway round the route and we ended up searching for her iPod that Freya managed to dislodge in an over-enthusiastic welcome!  I'll hunt further afield tomorrow and then let you in on what my plans are!

Here are a few photos from today.  I'm soooooo glad that something of a spring is finally with us!

Looking a teeny bit green!

The first I've seen this year

Favourite spot of all

So pretty in the sunshine

This pond is lovely and clear

Such a blue sky today
