Such a cold May

What a contrast this spring has been to last year! Temperatures have stayed really chilly and nearly every day has had rain. But there have been some gorgeous clouds and very slow sequence of blooming plants.  At least we have more hours of daylight, so in theory the soil should be warm enough to welcome plants . Here is the beginning of the new season!

Tryfs and I took Annie on a walk out on the forest today, and then I scampered over to Lou's house to give her a late birthday present. Annie didn't like us separating, but she survived.
