Of Blue Skies and Cherry Blossoms
07/05/2021
On Day 339 of 365 Days Wild I walked out under cloudy skies. Whilst I was out, however, the clouds briefly broke open to bless me with a short spell of blue. I was just passing by the small cherry tree, which has just come into blossom, at the time. Most of the flies and … More Of Blue Skies and Cherry Blossoms

Rainy May Blossom
04/05/2021
Day 336 of 365 Days Wild was cold, wet and windy, so much so that I nearly didn’t bother leaving the house. The sight of the blossom through my window was so appealing however, that I eventually did venture out a short way. I was very glad that I did. The weather might have been … More Rainy May Blossom

On day 329 of 365 Days Wild I spent some time with the Bird Cherry trees that are growing in the corner of the meadow. I spotted the first of these trees just coming into flower the other week.

A May morning in the orchard
14/05/2018
On a sunlit May morning last week, before starting our work for the day, my sister and I paid a visit to Cross O’Cliff Orchard in Lincoln. An historical orchard concealed behind buildings in the middle of a residential area of the city, you can easily walk past the entrance without ever realising that a … More A May morning in the orchard
The Indian Bean Tree

seek shelter beneath broad leaves find renewal I’ve loved the tree house tree from the moment we moved into our new house. At first, though, we had no idea what sort of tree it actually was. Generally, I’d simply admire the way the evening light lit the leaves. During July, however, we were given a few … More The Indian Bean Tree
