After a misty morning the skies cleared and the sun shone bright and warm, it felt as if Winter had gone and Spring had come
Harshness vanished. A sudden softness
has replaced the meadows' wintry grey.
Little rivulets of water changed
their singing accents. Tendernesses,
hesitantly, reach toward the earth
from space, and country lanes are showing
these unexpected subtle risings
that find expression in the empty trees.
- Rilke

Stinging nettle, (Urtica dioica). walking in the fields early in the morning, I spotted these new nettle plants with delicately frosted leaves. It reminds me that we can find beauty, even in the painful times we are all going through at the moment.

Anemone nemorosa, Wood anemone., windflower. These flowers grow in woodlands, they spread through their underground rhizomes and as this is a slow process, their presence indicates that the woodlands where they grow are ancient.
Taken at 16.04 on 31st March, about a quarter of a mile away from the site of the previous photograph. The landscape was bathed in sunshine on a perfect Spring day. The sun was warm and it was hard to believe that I had had a taste of winter just a short time before!
Country folk in the West Country have noticed that the flowering of the blackthorns in the early Spring, often coincides with a return to colder weather, hence the adopting of the name, “blackthorn Winter”.

The Pond in the valley, was once an important feature in the medieval village of Witcombe, surrounded by houses it was probably a place where people met to exchange news and tend ducks and geese and water horses. The village was probable deserted because of enclosure of common land and the rise of large scale sheep farming by the wealthy.
