With these testing times it can be difficult for people interested in nature and birding to keep our spirits up but remember just because human life has grounded to a temporary halt it's nice to see that the natural world is still continuing without delay. The good thing about Spring is that we can all enjoy it and usually it will come to us in some way or another, perhaps a Swallow will fly past your window or a returning Blackcap might start singing in the garden.Staying safe and abiding the new rules is important to me but I still think enjoying the nature around us is very important for our sanity! There are lots of ways to enjoy nature and I think we can all be surprised at what can be discovered in your garden or even seen from your bedroom window. So fill those feeders up, get your camera out and pop the binoculars by the window! My first instalment on the nature to where I live was inspired by mine and Libbie's daily exercise just to the field next to our house and our own garden where we found many wildflowers, it was fun to photograph them and then look them up in the fieldguide. Here's what we found I hope you enjoy our photographs….
