Thaw



WEEKLY VIEW



Had a really nice Jaunt round Swanholme Lakes Nature Reserve this morning & it's back to a Green & pleasant land again. I do admit it is nice to see after the month of snow/frost. The lakes are slowly thawing & the leaves on the evergreens look as though they've been cleaned.



It was nice to see a couple of picnickers enjoying Swanholme Lakes Nature Reserve & the Herons grouped together on the ice( camera lens not powerful enough to capture).



The rabbits are out & about brazen as anything, they must be hungry, i got to within 10 feet of this one.



It made a nice change to be able to walk without the slipping,



Now as i go walkabout in Swanholme Lakes Nature Reserve i'm in search of the first signs of Spring like bulbs popping through & buds on trees/bushes, fresh Hawthorne buds are the best green colour & tasty.

Now this was a super surprise seeing my favourite bird the Kingfisher.
