Spring Crocuses

A beautiful morning ..... no thermals, gloves, woolly hat or fleece ..... just a tee shirt under my fairly thin golf jacket. Pollok Park looked just like the Costa del Pollokshields with almost every bench occupied.

From a distance the carpets of crocuses look wonderful, it’s just when you get up close that you can see that many are trampled on, spattered with mud or just well past their best as the petals begin to wither. I did a lot of fairly close peering to find a clump that was still looking in almost perfect condition.
