A Natural History Diary. Base in Kent, UK but also reflecting observations made on my travels.

It IS Spring!
The increasing signs of Spring leave me concerned that we may have a start to Winter and all this new growth and blossom will be killed off. Robins are nest building in my garden. I have observed bearded reedlings carrying nesting materials. Primroses abound, celandines and dandelions are in flower and the blackthorn trees are adorned with white sprays of blossom. The skylarks sing above the rape fields and the chaffinches are now in full voice. Yet with March yet to arrive, frosts and even snow are not impossibilities.
