This friendly cabbage white stopped by, and after giving it a little stroke and it stayed, thought I would see if it wanted to crawl onto my hand. Feeling lucky after this and a bee doing it, hoping for a plentiful year for nature.

The little mason bee came back and hung around a bit for some close ups!

Some of last years pics I completely forgot about coming up, hoping this year is as good once it gets going.

Another treat, after accidently disturbing this little bee while gardening, it crawled onto my hand and warmed up for 10 minutes before setting off. Then popped back a short while later for some rest and pollen from the nearby geranium I thought it might like.

Finally seeing lots of signs of spring, a bit of colour working it’s way through.
And the insects are starting to make an appearance too, it has begun…

A little tawny mining bee stopped by while I happened to be watching a ladybird. Making the most out of the tiny gooseberry blossom.

Saw a large bumblebee sitting in the grass, enought time for a quick pic, then it was over to the rosemary for a snack.
