Anemone

This morning, we took ourselves off for a longer walk to Mapperley Village, reservoir and to have a look at 'Bluebell Wood' on the way back.  I was just saying to Malcolm that we hadn't yet seen any Wood Anemones in bloom this year, when we passed the D. W. T. viewing point and were delighted to see a large patch of these wonderful little white flowers.
By his time, the sun had all but gone and a few spots of rain had begun to fall, but the Anemones still looked gorgeous.
Looking around the area we spotted several patches of them.
Just one more picture before we returned home for coffee.  With the lateness of this Spring, it's so nice to see some colour on the woodland floor and a few more signs of better things to come.
