Spring flowers

We haven't blogged for quite a long time, that work thing and not being able to go anywhere has made blogging difficult.  However, Friday was Good Friday and a no work day, so we went for a walk and Ernest Baboon hunted down Spring flowers to be photographed with.

It didn't take long before we came across a lovely bank of primroses, which are really in season at this time of year.

It didn't take long again before we came across another seasonal flower, daffodils.

Ernest was very excited to come across these scooters, they are found around the town as a means of getting around, you can leave then at your destination and they will be used by somebody else.  Ernest had to give them a try.

That was fun, but we were on a walk so we carried on.

Near Holy Cross church in the village of Binstead, Ernest had to jump onto a hedge to get out of the way of the lorry that was emptying the dust bins.  He found this lovely tree covered in white blossom.

Outside the Fishbourne Inn in the village of Fishbourne, where the car ferry comes in, we found some late snowdrops, that was lucky as it is quite late for them. What was not so lucky was that, because of the lockdown, the Inn was not open.

On the way back Ernest found some pink blossom and he decided that this tree was a good one for some climbing and swinging.

It is a little bit early for bluebells, but Ernest did find a few early ones, that was lucky because last Tuesday we had walked in the bluebell wood and not found a single one.  We will be looking for more later when the come more into season.

Rocky, Rafiki, Roco, Gilberto and Richardson (left to right), were happy to find the Easter chocolates.
