Well we are well off Spring, yet the next flower to show it's head is the pretty Crocus. Even though we have had these terrible storms and torrential rain, here on the hillside of the Cotswolds the flowers are starting to breaking through.
I must look down in the valley where the floods are to see if the plants are acting differently, perhaps I'm becoming a scientist, studying the global warming effect on South West England, Professor Magpie sounds OK.

Professor Magpie is a grand title; I thought I saw some rape seed flowering yesterday I have to go back and find out for sure, I was in the car at the time.

So lovely. I'm very much looking forward to Spring, but we have a bit of a wait ahead of us. Snow is still featuring in our forecast, even though we are warm here today.
