Spring in London

I haven't had a Sunday morning cycle ride for several weeks so nice to be out on the bike today, despite it being overcast and cold.

Cycling along Leadbridge Road (the A104) saw lots of flashes of the white on the wings of finches in the bushes along side the road.

Then into the Lea Valley Park.  The pussy willows are now yellow instead of soft white, the willows are covered in small yellow/green leaves.  The hawthorn have their  fresh green leaves and the blackthorn are just about to burst into flower.

A friend who lives in Sudbury in Suffolk has frogspawn in her pond, but no sign in mine.
