It may be a crisp morning, but very clear and sunny and my first sighting of these,
THey can be heard all over town too 🙂

House Martins, you lucky sod! A true sign that days are getting longer and warmer 😀

It’s wet and windy up here 🙁

Like the shots of the birds though 🙂

The seasons do seem to be shifting back – colder in December than January/February. Summer in April/May. Wet and grey for the rest of the year.

No way it’s spring. Torrential rain and howling wind here in Glasgow.

It’s summer 8)

I think roper may be a bit further south than the rest of us 🙂

I know it’s spring here as the farmers are muck spreading in the fields along my commute. Consequently my bike and cycling clothes smell of chicken / cow muck.

I will mostly be cycling with my mouth closed for the next week or so.

Roper is in Spain right?

What with his spiders and his location, I really begrudge him his success 😉

I do live in Spain with plentiful mountains, sunshine, beaches, skiing, tapas…… but you have a good selection of spiders there in the UK too 😉

Round here the blackbirds are starting to sound off a bit more and the snowdrops and celandines are sticking their heads out. Won’t trust it till February’s done though.
