Sparrows are visiting regularly, a Goldcrest in the garden at lunchtime was the first I have seen for sometime I thought perhaps the cold had killed them off, also a Chiff Chaff in the garden

Alexanders blooming in the more sheltered places.

Swallows at Boskenna and a Sycamore in almost full leaf.
