Happy Easter

Sunshine and showers for us this Easter, how about you?

A closer look.......

at the tower from yesterdays post shows a couple of Greylag Geese feeding amongst the daffodils.

Daffodil Delight

I was in town earlier this week before Cliffords tower had opened up for the day. One or two keen visitors were already queuing up for a look around. All those tiny yellow dots are daffodils, honestly!

Snowy Daffodils

This time last year it was 16C and the daffodils around the city wall were in full flower. Today they were struggling to hold up their heads under a covering of snow

Daffodil Wall

Much of the grassy bank below the Bar Walls is planted with daffodils and looks at it's most colourful in April/May. The walls are open dawn to dusk for anyone to walk along, and they provide an alternative view of the city to walking the streets. A keen runner here is even trying to use them as a jogging track, although I think he might change his mind when he has become entangled in a few school parties coming the other way!
