We have a wren's nest in the ivy on the pergola. We didn't know what it was when we discovered it and nearly pulled it apart while investigating - very glad we didn't. The wren has been seen entering it, so hopefully it is being used and we haven't scared it off - I heard it singing loudly out there this morning. The nest is about 6ft away from our back door so perhaps we will be able to see what happens if there are chicks.
I've been planting flowers...
...the currants are already dashing ahead...
... the apple tree is covered in blossom, having recovered from it's severe pruning in the winter.
Of course, now that there are flowers, seedlings and bedding plants out there, the weather has taken a turn for the worst - the garden is now swathed in expanses of fleece until the cold snap is over.
