I've noticed more cuckoo pint than ever along the river walkway this year.
Strangely though, I've never yet noticed this plant in spring, when it looks like this.
Today along the river walkway, a tiny baby rabbit came hopping towards me, stopped then bounced into the undergrowth! Also I spent a lovely few minutes watching a family of wrens, the young ones at the stage of hopping around in the shrubbery but still all yellow beak and fluff.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place in which to take a walk. It looks so peaceful and I can hear the movement of the water while I look at these photos. So pretty.

ReplyDeleteah, you were very lucky to see a baby bunny :) I always find my heart skips a beat when see the young of animals in the wild - such vulnerability!
