sun in the sky..

and sunshine in plant form today!  A gorgeous warm and sunny day here in Essex so we had a lovely walk round RHS Hyde Hall in the sunshine as normal, and I spent my time chasing what looked like a Brimstone Butterfly - would he sit and pose for a photo though?! Of course not! So had to make do with wild flower photo snapping instead - here's a coltsfoot for you!  I thought they were dandelions at first - i was wrong!
