Raindrop, Dogwood and Sheep

A walk around Burncoose Nursery and gardens today, just for fun, not intending to buy anything, found puddles everywhere and droplets in the Lupin leaves after the morning rain. I love the patterns made here.  Zoom in if you can.

We really wanted to buy the beautiful Dogwood, China Girl, but can’t really find room for it.

We are enjoying watching the lambs in the back field growing up. There seem to be five now, of various sizes. I have to be very careful taking photos, keeping my distance or one of the sheep takes fright and they all rush to follow. I took this photo from the upstairs bedroom on a long zoom.

Sunshiney Day, Readers around the World and Birthday Dinner

1  The most glorious sunny Spring day today so we went garden shopping for the new patch at the back, more Spring bulbs, a dark red leaved Berberis that will have white hawthorn-like flowers and then beautiful berries for the birds in the winter, a big piece of trellis. I just love the way rain droplets collect in Lupin leaves!

3  Our oldest daughter, Mikki, is visiting this weekend to celebrate her birthday with us which is lovely. We haven’t seen her since Christmas.
