It's Cherry Blossom time once again and this morning, as we walked along Slack Road back towards the Nutbrook Coffee Shop, one cherry in particular, caught our attention.
When viewed against a deep blue sky as we did this morning, the pale pink flowers always look their best.
Looking back a couple of days and back to Mapperley Reservoir, we were delighted to get a fairly close view of a Great-crested Grebe. Now in full breeding plumage, it's clear where they get their name from.
Their goose-like calls echo across the water's surface every time one appears from a dive looking for fish. Then of course, it's time to preen those feathers to look pristine once more.
