Orchids

This is a picture of our little orchid, it actually smells delicious and is amazing as it gets NO attention at all. 



This shows you how orchids can be when they get attention.

Awwww.....

Looks like spring is arriving with these little lambs.



They are tiny so must have been born very recently.




And in need of the mother's milk.
Look how thick the mother's coat is compared to the lambs.

Mists

This morning dawned cold and misty. 
The temperature was below freezing having been 10C degrees in the day.
As the mist left and the sun warmed the ground an amazing sight occurred, only on bare soil in the fields.

Have never seen this before.

Weather Difference

Today the weather was sunny and mild, I even planted some carrot seedlings.


They have a cloche over them now.

However, just over 100 miles away in a friends garden she had this.


It is going to get colder here over the weekend!

Sun On Raindrops Bokeh

Backlit raindrops on twigs.
While some of the droplets are in focus the camera can make the others into beautiful circles of light.

A grey scene that starts to glisten.

Weather

As the sun rose the day began bright and sunny.
Now the sun has set and we have had clear blue skies, cloudy skies, rain, hail, sleet, snow wind. Mmmm.... think that is about it! A real mixed bag and certainly lots of weather.

So what better picture than something nothing to do with the weather?
Hope you like it!

Happy St. David's Day

Today, 1st March is St. David's Day. 
Saint David is the patron saint of Wales.



Each of the countries in the United Kingdom has their patron Saint. 

In Wales they celebrate St. David by wearing daffodils (or maybe leeks) and the school children often go to school dressed in Welsh national dress made from warm wool and cotton.
