Daffodils seem to have erupted out of the ground, the crocuses have raised their regal purple heads, snowdrops are sleepily nodding and the air is vibrating with lots of nicely noisy birds.
The dessicated stick branches that looked so dead are thick with fat, juicy sticky buds ready to burst off them.
There's fresh heap of fag ends and empty beer cans under the park bench, someone's been knocking the heads off the daffs and people are squabbling over whose turn it is on the tennis court.
You know what all this means, don't you?
It's SPRING!

Thanks for a glimpse of springtime in England.
Here in New York I was excited to see the first snowdrops and croci this week. No sign of daffs yet but I know they are there somewhere :-) can't wait.
I see non of that outside my windows. Spring has not sprung in Southern Ontario as of yet but they say it's coming. First we must get past the snow mixed with rain forecast for Tuesday.!!!
As usual you've painted lovely word pictures, Maggie, and pictures to match.
Besides making awesome Yorkshire's you're doing very well with words and this blog thing.
Well, you may have to put up with English winters to get there, but spring in England is such a magical thing! I've never been anywhere there are such gorgeous sights tucked around all over the place. Thanks for the photos!
love, Caro
I love the pictures of the daffodils , they are my most favourite flowers
