I took a lot of pictures today - here are just a few. I may well post some more in the next couple of days.
This is the view from the back door today
This seems pretty much as it was in 2021, but the clematis had more open flowers at this time last year.
Here is the miniature apple tree;
There are more buds than last year, and they are further on than they were in 2021 but a little behind 2022.
Seen from the house side, the peony is in the foreground - and is slightly further on than she has been at this point in either of the past two years.
And finally, for today, a visitor to one of the bird feeders.
