Still winter but feels like Spring

I walked around the garden this morning and there were blue skies, its warm and we are still officially in winter. It has been a bit of a worry actually as we have had frosts and very little rain through August, but things are growing well and looking lovely. I just hope it rains through September or we will really be in a mess. John saw a fox this morning coming up the drive, so it was with a bit of trepidation that I let out the hens, they are not all here in the photo but my lovely young roosters look quite magnificent. The Cob stallion was looking over the gate at the bottom of the orchard and as you can see there are blossoms on some of the trees. Double click to see a larger version. A lovely day to be alive.
