The only real sign of spring for me so far has been putting the clocks forward last weekend!
I'd usually class myslef a winter person, but even i am sick of the cold weather. Spring?? Bring it on I say.

Why is there never enough time?
I did laugh at these posts! Chez, if your hens and ducks could vote I'm sure they'd have given you straight sixes!! What a picture you painted ;-)
Poor AL, I hope the sun shines on you soon.
Sorry to rub it in but down here in the south we have had super weather this weekend. I must admit that we did have one brief hailstorm this afternoon but apart from that it was sunny and warm. The spring flowers are looking lovely and there were butterflies and bees going about their business when I was sitting outside drinking coffee after lunch.
Fingers crossed that this trend will migrate northwards in the coming weeks.
There is something new to learn everyday...

Hi,
in Norfolk we often need body warmers and gloves til early May, especially before 9 am.
I hope to get out tomorrow birding and prove spring is really here by seeing some summer migrants.:)

Loved it .. snowdrops, a few weeks late, appeared, verges are now bright and colourful with the daffs. primroses and crocuses all good signs that spring is here. . NOW . summer migrants are arriving daily. Yes its cold and today is wet windy but April showers bring may flowers... Its all positive it is coming HONEST lol

I have left Sunny and warm Devon today with Spring well underway, baby lambs, daffs and Mums magnolia blossoming nicely and have returned to an equally sunny London with some daffs which have now gone over and signs of life in my garden with blossom showing and all the shrubs with new shoots.
I am a cool weather person as can't stand the heat, but even I have now had enough winter thanks very much.
