Wild Plants

At the edge of woodland in a city park wild plants are in reproduction mode.
At first glance this tangle of Cleavers, Brambles and Nettles looks chaotic but there is
a natural order in place - everything is making the most of its alloted space.

community woodland and Royal Park in central Edinburgh.

Spring Snow

Last week we had quite a lot of snow.
Beautiful at the time, but now swiftly disappearing.
Thankfully we escaped the extremely low temperatures experienced
in other parts of the country.

She is almost invisible in the snow covered landscape.

Today there is slush and mud everywhere so we've decided to stay indoors
.....  dreaming of Spring flowers!
