Spring is on the way...

It really is! Look, bluebells coming up where we've just finished coppicing:

and Lords and Ladies (or Wild Arum or Cuckoo Pint, depending on what you call it) too:

Dog's Mercury as well:

and also Honeysuckle:

with even the most dead-looking vines are coming to life:

Now the coppicing is all done, I've turned the photos I took most days we were there into a short time-lapse video of the coppicing. It's weird to watch, as the wood has changed so much as we cut the trees down. If I can remember to take enough, maybe I'll make another time lapse video of it all growing back...
