Thanks to everyone who came yesterday, despite the wet weather. Thanks also to Sally and her staff at the Library for providing some lovely refreshments, I was very impressed. There was talk about doing a second walk before the exhibition in September. I will announce a date for this in the near future.
I will share my photos with you all shortly and I look forward to seeing yours too!
When I hear the rising song of the skylark, instant visions of Summer
enter my mind and my spirit is lifted. So I was somewhat surprised to
encounter these wonderful elements of nature yesterday in mid
February. I cupped my hands around my ears and scoured the ground to
see if I could catch sight of any. It took a few minutes and I spotted
a skylark hop out of one furrow into the next, barely flying, more of
a hop in the purest of senses.
I raise the question: is it normal to see skylarks this early in the
year?
