Almost Spring..

In the last few days, warmer temperatures have brought out many more crocus flowers in what is otherwise a very barren looking garden. 

Some of them have been nibbled, not sure by whom..

There were five deer in the garden at dusk this evening.  There is very little new growth for them to eat as yet, they were pawing at the leaves to see what they could find.

More changeable weather ahead - a 3C maximum temperature tomorrow followed by 17C on Saturday - which will be a good temperature for the first day of Spring!
