Waking up the Garden

 This afternoon, I mowed the side lawn for the first time this year.  The grass is looking fresh and green on this warm Spring day.

The pond has been topped up and had a little weed removed.  There are newts active in the water at present, so I do not want to disturb it any further.

Under the hedge we have a few Wood Anemones in flower and thy are twinkling in the sunlight.

I was careful not to mow the lawn where we are going to keep it as a flower meadow.  We have a Snakes Head Fratillery near the seat at the moment . I have also spotted the leaves of Dog Daisies and Foxgloves, it will be interesting to see what does come up this year.
