Afternoon walk

I took this photo yesterday. I can’t remember the name of this tree but it was ablaze with the most wonderful blossom.
It’s in my SIL garden so I will ask her next time.
This narrow lane is my usual route for a walk but yesterday Harry & I cut through just past these two houses & walked across the fields & round a different way to the village.
My two nieces live in each of these houses...the first one is my hairdresser & has the salon in the village. She hardly dares go anywhere near the village before she is accosted by her clients asking if they are at the top of her list!

This normally very quiet access to the farm & a few houses has become the walking motorway of the area!

Three good things:
1. I got up late so a lazy day!
2. My sister is joining in part of an online vintage sale on Instagram, Cathy & I have bought a couple of items.
3. A quick chat to my cinema friend at a distance....she brought some jigsaws back she had borrowed off one of our neighbours. We miss our cinema trips so much!

Lovely photo and what a beautiful bush. It's possibly a red hawthorn.....gorgeous blossom.
Nice to have a gentle day.

[Jane Armstrong]

Possibly a Wiegla but what a lovely burst of colour. Hope you are keeping well

[Pat Knowles]

@sarah19 @motherjane Yes I think the red hawthorn name was used! Thank you both. It’s a big tree!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Yes I was going to suggest a Red Hawthorn - so pretty and full of flowers - later to produce all the berries ! and a lovely country lane scene ! I have also had a very lazy day - my shoulder giving me the gip !!

@beryl Oh dear Beryl...pain is very wearing! Hard to live with when it’s regular & ongoing.

Beautiful spot for a walk

[Bep]

What a lovely picture; I love that beautiful tree.

[Phil Howcroft]

It's fabulous blossom colours and a lovely little lane too Pat

[Maggiemae]

I like your words, a walking motorway'! Same as outside on our street - so many people and dogs, I've never seen before! This is a lovely scene!

[Jane Pittenger]

Wonderful composition, leading line, color, and the pedestrians right in a good place

[Babs]

You live in a lovely village area. Who would ever want to live in a city if you could have somewhere like this to walk around.

We have got lots of jigsaws, I think it was a pastime from our isolated air force days. I miss the cinema too and the live theatre.

[Issi Bannerman]

It looks like a kind of hawthorn, I think. Lovely shot and a lovely area you live in.

[Casablanca]

You do live in such a beautiful place. We found the edge of a field to walk along yesterday. Not that much greenery when you live in a town sadly! Gorgeous pink blooms on that tree

[Christine]

It is a variety of Hawthorn. There are two of these trees on our walk in the park. They are lovely. Good shot

[Rick Schies]

It looks like a lovely place for a stroll

[Monique]

Looks like a great place to live
