A gentle welly walk on a damp green brae

This is the day

Apple blossom

Yew and holly in May

One white bluebell

Some years this plant doesn't flower

Blubells among ferns and seaves (rushes)

The progress of unchomped montbretia leaves, now the deer have more greenery to go at

Spot the leaves of a Southern Marsh Orchid among fern, cowberry and foxglove

Violets still popping up in unexpected places

New red stalks of Hard fern and, below, tormentil leaves looking robust and ready for flowering later.

Alpine Enchanter's Nightshade has spread to new places

The north-west bank

Delicate rhodie blossom. This is not one of the invasive spreading kind

Spider silk with green and red

A misty day made the spider silk show very clearly

The top of  peony plant

The peony web spider (not properly in focus but you can see her colours)

A misty hammock of spider silk strung between holly and yew

And closer

One of the garden 'windows' between tree trunks

red and green

A baby rowan tree growing between bird cherry trunks

more red and green
