Today started out quite chilly but has warmed up along the way. I spent most of the morning, as I often do on a Monday, walking round Colinton Dell alongside the Water of Leith.
it was lovely to find several cornflowers in the 'Hidden Meadow'
and the ash trees are looking lovely now too
as indeed are the hawthorns, some of which are already fully in bloom
The wild garlic (ramsons) are still in full bloom and looking wonderful. I love the light in these photos, which makes the ramsons flowers look pale green, although in reality they're white.
For those of you in the UK, a reminder that Springwatch starts at 8pm tonight on BBC2. The live cameras are already set up .....
lovely blooms and greenery!

ReplyDeleteYes I was Springwatching as well!
ReplyDeleteso very green and lovely - I always feel a sense of peace visiting your blog (except when talking about endangered species but I'm sure you know what I mean).
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteGingi, no that colour is totally natural. I was actually surprised to see that it came out so well in the photos.
Oh! I love love love cornflowers, but I never knew that's what they are called.
ReplyDeleteThose Hawthorn are something else!
