Morning Compo, last week on About Anglia News, they were saying that frogs are out and about.
But it might be a record done your neck of the woods.
Lets hope we don't end up getting a bad end to the Winter, as it will have drastic results for the wildlife.
It will happen one Winter.

Just posted in the Animal section that I came across my first frog this morning too. It wasn't croaking though but if a few more mates arrive, I'll look forward to the concert.

The big Bumble bees were coming out of their winter hiding places at work this morning as well.
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

I was putting the potatoes out to chit in the unheated greenhouse this morning and it was beautiful in there: flowering violas, Iris danfordiae, Iris histrioides, early muscari, hyacinths and lots and lots of primulas. Lovely spring smells!
