Cherry Pink....

.... and apple blossom white, as the old song goes. Judging by these apple blossom flowers however, the lyricist seems to have forgotten to inform mother nature of the way things should be.

They look rather pink to me and as we saw a little while ago, the cherry flowers were whiter than white. It seems that the local insects are particularly fond of the apple blossom too.

Further round the parkland and on towards Osbourne's Pond and the water lilies are beginning to lift their leaves to the sun. Hopefully it will not be too long before the flowers follow.
