First signs of Summer to come.

Post by Treadtrader »

Spring seems to be here, if this little fella is anything to go by. :)

Taken in my garden this morning, a welcome sight.

Anyone spotted any other signs that winter is ebbing?

Your right Spud, I was out topping up the bird feeders when I spotted the Snowdrop.

Feathered buggers were lined up on the fence waiting. :woohoo:

The trees are budding and the days are getting longer, hurry up spring. By the way TT, how often do you water those tyres? :blink:

I noticed these under our holly tree and it lifted my spirits. The new growth pushing past the dead layer. B)

Almost poetic there Jim... and based on the speed of spring and the location of the yerself and TT I expect to arrive in Derby around tea time tomorrow :D Might be a bit late for snowdrops being out then :D

I saw small yellow flowers out at a customers house yesterday but unfortunately there's a weather warning for snow tomorrow morning for the NE of Scotland! Hope spring comes soon. No snowdrops yet tho!
