Change of scenery
We are still in lock down here and don’t get to venture beyond our 5km, so I for one would really enjoy a change of scenery. But perhaps changing from colour to black and white, (borrowing idea from Patti here) may be enough for now.

Six on Saturday – Pollinators return
It is always a special moment when we see the bees and other pollinators returning to the garden in the spring. So for this week’s Six on Saturday, I am going to just share six pollinator images.

3. Willow catkins. Great for bumblebees. We saw our first bee last Sunday, then no more till another one today. Haven’t managed to get photo yet though.
