A walk in April with the asbos

Scrabble, Gata and Tata all a'twitch with exciting spring smells

Oil seed rape growing in the field behind us
The motorway outside our gate
Great view of the soft rolling Downs. In the distance is Lady Hamilton's Folly 
over the way from Uppark

Early May blossom always makes me think of poor Anne Boleyn


Cowslips nodding if not mooing a welcome by the gate



Bluebells ringing in Spring




A rather lovely little virginal bluebell all in white

An  early campion

I think this is a tiny little hardy geranium

Darling primroses




More shocking pink campions

Violets my grandmother's favourite little flower. Can't imagine why anyone would want to cover them in sugar and eat them..they are so pretty to look at.


This old ash tree is like a great hand coming out of the earth

Ahh lovely wild garlic...ramsons

I wonder what kind of fungi this is..looks like it would make a good black ink..so long as one didn't put the brush anywhere near one's mouth!! Ykk
They almost look as if they could crawl away!



This post is at the corner of our field


Deer slots in the claggy mud

May blossom

Baby camomile with what seems to be rabbit droppings by the side..

So love when the spring flowers start to bloom
