Spring is now well on the way :
… with a veritable carpet of anemones, this to the north of Titania’s Bower close to the stream :
Even the dog violets were out although we couldn’t find the early flowering orchid that Pat and Mary told us about :
We wandered up through Knelle Wood South and came across a magnificent display of bracket fungus :
Everyone was feeling the freshness of spring and the deer had not long passed by :
Always refreshing to hear a rational answer.
