Daffodil by fishers

Daffodil

There is something particularly uplifting in seeng daffodils. They are such big, bright and cheerful flowers. There is a lovely display of them in the Homestead Park in York at the moment.

Sadly the park is now closed. It has attracted large crowds because of the nice spring weather, which has made 'social distancing' impossible, so this will have been my last visit for a while. I should add that it was quiet at the time I was there at the end of last week.

Beautiful yellow, i wish they could close Roseberry Topping near us but it’s impossible to police, last weekend was the busiest weekend we have ever seen. There was no social distancing, folk can be so stupid!

Sad to hear that people will not be able to appreciate the beauty while in isolation.

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

I love to see the daffodils around York, with displays along the banks of the city walls and around Cliffords Tower.

I also love the displays on the North York Moors in Farndale where they grow wild.

@craftymeg Margaret, it looks like the police are cracking down on unnecessary travel. There have been road checks on motorists to ensure they are not making unnecessary journeys, and they seem to be widely publicised (locations are kept secret), so hopefully the message will get to even the most stupid of people quite soon.

I'm sorry to hear about your park... but I hope you're able to go walking elsewhere!

@will_wooderson Thank you William - we have to be careful since we are both at risk.

@gardenfolk

Thank you, it is nice to see the start of the spring (even if only from a distance in the current emergency)
