A gentle walk around Ings bridge in the spring sunshine to start off the new season at Limefitt.
Not much to see in the way of spring yet, but the promise of daffodils with the yellow starting to force its way through. The hazel trees (or are they bushes?) where we got the nuts to eat during our walks last autumn are covered in catkins. I didn't realise that several types of tree have catkins before I looked at Wikipedia to confirm that they were catkins. Oak, birch, hazel, willow, alder, chestnut, sweetfern and poplar are all catkin-bearing.
