I don't think I'm alone in feeling the need for a wee dose of Spring right about now.  Our esteemed groundhog, Puxatawny Phil, has declared an early arrival of Spring, so I thought it would be nice to gather some of our favorite photos of Spring in beautiful England to warm our cockles a bit.  Here's a few to get started, but please join in with your faves too!

I must admit, it's been a lovely day here today. The sun has been shining, the birds singing, people seem to be coming out of hibernation!  i've even uncovered the campervan and washed/waxed it and taken it for a spin!!   spring is in the air here!!  i'm sure winter has a few punches left for us ....but its a sign spring is around the corner!!Laughing

I hear you Krissy, although we have been fortunate not to get slammed as much as New England with the snow.  Mind you, we are nevertheless freezing our bums off right now and are predicted to "enjoy" more freezing rain on Saturday.  Oh, bother!
