Happy New Year!

The winter solstice has passed and the days seem to be getting a longer already, which is always a bonus in January when spring seems still to be very far away.  But I spotted another herald of warmer times yesterday - a little splash of colour in the form of a small clump of winter aconites flowering in the car park.  Maybe not wild native plants (they are survivors from the old farmhouse garden), but beautiful never the less.
