A local event on Saturday that definitely sounds banging!
Yes, turns out it was not a photo from this year, not quite sure why it was sent in, possibly to cheer us all up. To assume etc...
Delicate white flowers with multiple yellow-tipped anthers belonging to Cherry Plum. The living branch is held in the hand to aid the photograph.
A big, shaggy, ginger-coloured Highland Cow with large, spreading horns standing in a woodland setting.
Yellow and green catkins of Alder hanging down in a bunch with the trunk of the tree in the background.
Some photos from Pollok Country Park @friendsofpollok.bsky.social this morning. A short report here naturalconnections.blogspot.com/2026/02/w-it...
Thanks Stuart, will check it out!
It's beginning to look a lot like springtime! Going daft for the daffs shared by Jill Ferguson

By summer they mean spring/summer 2027 and by Pollock they mean Pollok. Apologies for their paywall.

Hats off to the contractors working today to clear snags from below the bridge that led to Polloktoun. Not an easy task especially when the chainsaw had to be used while suspended.
