We've had such a lovely few days at the beginning of this week, some gardening has been done, walks have been taken and washing has dried outside. We'll soon have to give the grass areas in the garden their first cut.
Here are five signs of Spring that have filled me with joy this week
1. Daffodils - everywhere, in gardens, on verges, in woodlands, on city roundabouts. Everywhere you look are wonderful, bright, cheerful yellow daffodil heads bobbing in the breeze. Bunches in the supermarkets ready to take home to add cheer to a windowsill, table or dresser.
2. Frogspawn in the pond - one of the sure signs for me that Spring is really here at last.
3. Birds pairing up, the wood pigeons and collard doves wake us each morning, magpies fly overhead with bits of twig in their beaks, the birds at the feeders take food away for their mates, the hedgerows are busy, the air full of bird noises.
4. Sheep and lambs in the fields - we spotted the first little Jacob lamb at Trentham on Wednesday and the lambing shelter was set up ready to receive some more.
5. Birds nesting in gardens, woodlands, meadowland and on the waterside.
