It is official, Spring is here. The 21st March, the Spring Equinox.
A few images from my recent lockdown walk.
Flowers of many kinds are bursting out everywhere.
It wouldn't be March without some rather threatening looking clouds and high winds.

Female Blackbird probably on the look out for a suitable nesting site.
A Redwing making his way North East on the way to Scandinavia.
He has got a long way to travel yet.
Yellowhammers are looking nice and bright now especially around the farm on my walk where the grain is stored.
Male Chaffinch looking pretty colourful for the breeding season.

Another chance I have had to shoot a few images of the Grey Wagtail this Spring.
This one was also at some distance, necessitating heavy cropping of the images unfortunately.
Wrens are making a lot of noise now singing from prominent perches.
A lone Song Thrush found at a location that I have seen him a few times before.

Daffodils of various blooms are out in full everywhere, along pathways, roadside verges and woodland.
Beautiful images of Spring.
