Suddenly it feels like spring - I feel just like Anita Klein's 'Angelo della Primavera' ........,.
A long walk along the Thames. Lungwort is out and attracting a few brave honey bees - saw a solitary bumble bee or two rather stumbling about, and a Brimstone butterfly. On the river several male Great-Crested Grebes were skirmishing around a rather disinterested female. Two Red Kites circled overhead - one a paler youngster.
The reintroduction of the Kite has been so successful I constantly see one from the back garden. Cowslips have also been successfully rescued from the brink. Last autumn at Wittenham Clumps they ploughed up the slopes down to the river and were planting cowslips by the hundreds.
This circular walk ends back by the river in Abingdon - doing its best to look extremely picturesque.
The blossom of bird cherry has finally opened. Time for tea and buns I think......
