Spring Awakenings

Approaching mid April and things are just starting to stir. Its still quite cold out and some areas are still having snow, but it's a sunny day today though, perfect for a little tree spotting.

A few Cherries just budding up and a Norway maple with bright yellow flowers.

3 March sleepers

 A trio of trees just beginning to stir.

Hawthorn, Birch and Whitebeam.

(Edit, I originally thought the last tree was a Sycamore, but now its in leaf I can see its actually a Whitebeam!)

A Cherry in bloom

 I believe this is a wild cherry, growing in the village nearby. It has lots of white star-like flowers in March. Very pretty!

Some February trees

 Went out for a little family walk and had to photograph some of the trees I saw.

A nice stand of Larches, full of cones, a nice Crack Willow I think, and some Alders.

Then and now, a Hornbeam

 While out and about with the kids the other day I went past a Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) that my daughter photographed back in 2010 when she was 6, and I asked her to photograph the same tree 11 years later.
