It was raining this morning and I expected it to still be raining at lunchtime when I'd agreed to meet Crafty Green Boyfriend for a walk round Corstorphine Hill (which is a walk he does most lunchtimes as he works near the hill!). It was actually more of a drizzle than proper rain when we got out there.
Everything is looking beautifully green at the moment
The cow parsley is blooming at the sides of the paths
and the hawthorn is at its best, both white
and pink
This little snail was enjoying the damp grass
and lots of birds were flying round, including bullfinches and greenfinches, though none wanted to pose for the camera!

Just love a walk in the rain. Thank you for sharing yours! The pink hawthorn is gorgeous. I didn't know it came in pink!
ReplyDeleteYou still have that beautiful fresh green of spring. It is turning to early summer here in the south. Hawthorns are over and the green is darkening. Still lovely, but the season is moving on.
ReplyDeletenot a fan of rain, but kudos to you two for a habitual walk (if you wait for a sunny day to have a walk here in Belgium, you will wait... and wait....
