The hawthorn hedge beside the path that I walk along to get to Homestead Park is now bursting into life. It is quite amazing how at this time of year it changes almost daily.
Hawthorn was once very popular for use as a rapidly growing hedge plant. Indeed, the location where this shot was taken was part of the boundary hedge of the grounds of Clifton Hospital.
Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.
It is lovely to see all the signs of Spring, and to look forward to longer daylight and warmer weather - and the chance to get out and about more. In the last few days we have received information about a bus service onto the Yorkshire Wolds giving links to the Wolds Way long distance footpath, and also the dates for the Summer Moorsbus service, which will run for four months this year rather than the two months of last year. Now all I need are the timetables and I can start planning!
