Blossom time

 Mayow Park is at peak spring blossom time. Cherry blossom, hawthorn, fruit tree blossom. We mustn't forget the wild flowers including dandelions, cuckoo flower, daisies, forget-me-not and lesser celandine. All of these provide pollen for bees and other insects that fly from flower to flower. 

Here are some photos from today in the park.

The pink cherry blossom on the ornamental cherry trees - a joy to behold. They have lined the path edge below with their pink petals.

Nearby the hawthorn bushes are showing off their blooms
