Blossom Time - Harrogate Stray
Now that's what I'm looking forward to! Don't get me wrong though, I generally love all phases of all seasons but, as our temperatures have dropped somewhat the last few days, decided on a sneak preview of changes to come. (Strange that I should go back to an image from last spring to do so).
We enjoyed a little walk this afternoon, appreciating the new shoots and buds as they gently unfurl.
Meanwhile, a little question. When does an apple tree become a thorn tree?
Answer: When it's branches are wrapped and bedecked with thorn branches, in an attempt to prevent a couple of neighbourhood cats climbing up to the blue-tit's nesting box.
No matter what cat deterrent device we utilize in the garden, our endeavours always seem to come to naught!

My Good Lady has resorted to scattering orange peel and white pepper to try and discourage the little beggers from her new herb garden. We'll have to let you know if it works. TOF
