But Nature just gets on with it regardless and the Crab Apple tree in my front garden is thick with beautiful blossom. I cut a few sprays to share them with you before the rain knocked all the petals to the ground.
Though summer must be on its way because I saw my first Swift on Wednesday, of our summer visitors they are the last to arrive and the first to leave. These amazing birds thrill me with their aeronautical displays and the fact that they have flown all the way from Africa to grace us with their presence for the summer.
I hope you all have a lovely and sunny weekend!

Beautiful photos. The fruit blossom looks so lovely at the moment. I love its delicacy and the slight hint of pink in the petals is so pretty. Hope you have an enjoyable (and sunny) weekend.
Georgie,
This reminds me so much of the
bouquets my grandmother would put
together out on her farm in
Oregon...Just beautiful.
