Friday Smile - sunshine and colour!

 
Today I will let the colours of the last few sunny days bring a bit of colour to my blog for our Friday smile.....



A few double daffs from Sainsburys - so bright and cheery.

Vibrant orangey red Chaenomeles
                    
 Bright orangey yellow Berberis


Bridal veil - some sort of Spirea I think.

  My Scimia has a mass of creamy white frothy blossom that has a lovely perfume when the sunshines on it.

A delicate creamy pink tulip


My own hen pheasant still keeping her eggs cosy beside my Mahonia bush.

If you want more Friday smiles then pop over to Annie's blog - A Stitch In Time.
I think she has been out in the Spring sunshine too!!

    Lovely photos, at last we have had some warm weather. Hope it comes back soon.
    Our pheasants keep coming but don't know if they have a nest, if they do it isn't in our garden,perhaps Rosie the cat would put them off although they do tolerate each other on the patio.

    Beautiful!!!! I love the pheasant. Do you collect the feathers once they are shed (is that the right word)?

    Hugs,
