Flowers Fungi and Sunbeams
The snowdrops were out in profusion on todays walk and a bunch of winter aconites had opened their petals. The fungi has survived the recent freeze. As a matter of fact the scarlet elf cups were almost as profuse as the snowdrops. Most of the recent snow was disappearing and as we dropped down into Hartley from the old railway line a band of remaining snow pointed the eye towards the sunbeams breaking through the clouds onto the fells beyond.
