Cherry blossom is so lovely and a real Turing point of spring. I think it's the Japanese that have a cherry blossom festival where everyone walks among the trees and has a picnic. I never knew that untill a few years ago but we had three trees in my garden as a kid and I used to do just that. I loved lying beneath the tree looking up into the blossom and watching the petals fall all over me. Ah memories!
Something I have often wondered about, is whether Seasons happen at the same time throughout Britain or if there is some sort of delay in Spring blossoms due to some natural event which gradually travels across the land. The Japanese blossom event varies each year, so it’s possible to miss it.
I usually only have such deep thoughts when laying under a tree before it bursts into life in Spring. I go back to the same trees throughout the year to see what they’re upto but have never looked for the answer incase I run out of things to think about.
I must say that the Ash in Summer has a far classier sound than the Oak.

This bench had been vandalised and the USB phone charging sockets had been nicked. This also affected the Wi-Fi which meant that ...

The head of our 'pet' pheasant family, in the garden today. Exceptionally handsome, and always appreciative of a handful of seed originally purchased for our other wild birds:
