Spring is here in southern Ontario, but tenuously so. It's still quite cold at night (minus 3 this morning), but the days are sunny and almost warm :)
This native plant has arrived again - my friends say it is 'Mayapple'. All I know is it seems like an old friend: pops up every year and brings a smile.

Weather conditions pretty poor this morning, but a pair of phenominally loud f15`s flying overhead more than made up for it. Only got a pic of one of them though.

Today was a mooch around Hameldon Woods, the Bluebells are not as good as they used to be due to scrambler bikes using it as part of a route.

Still beautiful....and I can imagine the scent of them too.
When we were little we used to pick bluebells....But Ma would never allow them in the house. They had to sit in the milk bottle or jam jar on the window bottom outside.....and they never lasted more than a day or so.
Much better left to grow.

Where were you at for those photies GP24? I like Military aircraft, but getting anywhere near an airfield usually brings 20 questions from plod or some kind of armed response team! :D

Raf coningsby, a few good viewing spots and a long line of fence you can see through.

Weather Scorchio 25°/26°C all week (while grafting) the week-end comes, sun,showers & cloudy 14°C ...... there's no justice in this World! :D Still, didn't stop us nipping across to Hengelo Market (NL) for the day though.

For some reason or other they've got a thing about bears (x3) - Fruit, sweeties, cakes & an owd Baggage scoffing cake! :) - Didn't fancy enquiring to deeply - Hengelo

And to finish off, some Furries (3 different ones I believe judging by their colouring) that have been visiting us of late to grapple me nuts ..... :eek: that we put out for them.

Did you use a tripod to get such a clear shot?

Thanks Margaret, no tripod just resting on the loft window. Tried to get jupiter as well but couldn`t keep it steady enough. I do have a tripod but it was in the car and couldn`t be bothered going to get it.

I have just been outside to bring my washing in and I noticed that the moon was up....so I tried to get a shot. Nowhere near as defined as yours...maybe this is because it is still relatively light...but here is my poor offering.
I used a monopod to steady the camera.
