Spring?

In line with much of Britain, we awoke this morning to an inch thick covering of snow.  And we thought this was supposed to be the end of March!  Feels more like the end of January at the moment.  The snow is rather wet and slushy so I don't think it will last very long and with any luck we will be able to get out for a walk this afternoon.  The poor birds are looking a little bemused at the un-seasonal weather and the fat-balls are taking a bit of a hammering this morning.  This little chap was looking all 'puffed-up' in the as he waited for his turn on the feeder...
.. His missus was certainly getting her beak full while she could.
Things shouldn't be this cold at this time of year - maybe things will improve next week.
