It’s #spring and the #flowers are blooming, which means that #Bees have got a good supply of food. They particularly seem to like the small flowers of the #Cotoneaster plant in the front #garden and throughout a #SunnyDay, there are always several dozen on it.
It’s a nice #SunnyDay outside and it really feels like spring. The #bees are busy making use of the #flowers, while the flowers are busy making use of the bees.
12/04/2024 - A sunny visit to Leith Hall. The 17th century big house has an interesting history and is well worth a walk around. The gardens are lovely. Early spring flowers and great trees. We found a bench to sit and have our lunch. The warmth of the sun felt good. A fine day out taken slow.
29/03/2024 - After our brew stop we decided to take the long way back to the start and say hello to Balnagowan Neolithic long cairn and then Craig Ferrar trigpoint before heading back along the old railway line. Just a lovely day out, taken slow. Very few humans but lots of wonderful trees, plants and birds. My sort of day.
