spring

I opened the back door to a blackbird with a beak full of nesting material.  Up here on the moors, we saw two curlews and yesterday, a lapwing.  After sitting to admire the mist in the valley for a while, Little Dog needed lots to drink and even a dip in the stream after this paddle.  Most unheard of!

A quick jaunt on my bike followed.  With a little chill in the air, I still managed shorts and even short sleeves for a while.

Spring is in the air. But for how long?!
