But when things emerge, it means other things are dying off. Snowdrops are still atrong, but as soon as they open fully, my beloved aconite begins to die which I always find a really sad time of the year; these are the only source of bright colour in the early spring.
But as they open, it at least means they can be pollinated. And yesterday, I came across a couple of slightly sluggish honeybees in action in the yellow flowers!
It's nearly March. The bees are about. When might I hear a chiff chaff.

I agree Simon that Lovely splash of colour always lifts the spirit.
ReplyDeleteGood to see the bees, if only a few.
That honey bee had better have a warm place to hide out, it's turning very cold over the next week.
