The willow trees are just about to come out in foliage, our Magnolia trees are about to blossom and I've just observed the first Bumble Bee of the year clattering around our garden.
Spring must have sprung for it to have awoken so early from hibernation, though there's still a chance of another cold snap yet.
Saw a couple of queens in my garden for the first time this year about 3-4 weeks ago. I am on the south coast though.
