Gutted, clear blue skies today but still very cold, went and checked my bees and they are all active so touch wood they've survived the winter. Few snowdrops out in the wood and some catkins but that's it, spring seems a long way off.

Snowdrops out in the front garden, daffs 6" high.  The geranium in the pot on the patio is still thriving, and there are signs of buds and blossom all over the place.  Very cold here in Cambridge but the sun is shining and spring seems to be on the horizon, the Fens are always beautiful no matter what the season, but on clear crisp days like this the views are spectacular.  Its so clear I can see Ely cathedral in the distance and the birdsong is almost deafening in the silence of the day.

In the valley beside the almond blossom we have Anemones & Oxalis.

We also have a rabbit that thinks it's a guinea fowl :o :o, they are always together wandering around the village. I'm wondering if the guinea fowl roost in the trees at night like the chickens do.

Thanks for the lovely pictures.  We are coming out on the 22nd Feb, they have made us even more excited.  We have never been out there this time of year.

Thanks to all who have sent photos. It just proves that a picture is worth a thousand words. We in Blighty, I am sure, will wait in anticipation for the next instalment from all those   :)who are lucky enough to live in such a lovely place.

It's cold and windy in Kaya this morning.

Kaya

Bagadag

Flooding in the valley

I've never seen the Kordan so quiet, no a soul about. We parked at the Mancero and walked to the Sultan for a coffee and we saw very few people braving the elements.
