Proud Mum!

A short walk around the lake at Straws Bridge this morning, resulted in a lovely surprise. Dabbling in the shallows was this proud family....
An early outing for these tiny beauties proved to be a welcome sight for us and a further indication that Spring has really sprung.
As if more proof were needed, trees and bushes are all coming into blossom in the hedgerows. The Blackthorns (also known as Sloes) are in full flower and these magnificent Cherry trees (from the same family as the Blackthorns), are doing their best to compete.
