Spring is bursting out all over

Sunday !7th April 2011


                          What a glorious spring day it's been today.  On our usual Sunday walk with our friends we've been into Yorkshire around Clapham, Austwick and Feizor and on our return route back around Crummock Dale skirting the Norber Eratics.We've done this walk several times but on a glorious spring day with all the spring flowers opening  it's a joy to be out.

                                            Primroses



I call this flower a False Oxslip a  multi- headed primrose, it's a cross between the Cowslip and the Primrose
the two flowers shown above.
