The old rowan on a lovely spring day


Dead branches of the old rowan tree with its single live branch behind. For all the decay of the parent plant, the live part of the old rowan was looking decidedly healthy and robust yesterday.

Against its backdrop of tall birch, grey sallow, and a glorious blue sky
flowering too!

In its shade, bluebells grow. I discovered yesterday that I can't smell the scent of bluebells. Toad can.

The scent of the Pheasant's-eye daffodils that I put in a vase with a few bluebells, I can detect, strongly!

'English' bluebells, Pheasant's-eye daffs
& a young bracken frond
