Spring...

Another glorious day today.
I went for a walk around the neighbourhood after work
and this front garden caught my eye.
All the heathers are out, so this was a carpet of colour.

Swans

What a beautiful day it was here today-
It felt warm, although it only reached a maximum of 13 degrees,
but there was no wind and the sun was shining.
On my way home from work I stopped at the Loch in Holyrood Park
and took these pictures of the swans:

Roofline

We went to the dentist today and I took a quick snap of this building
on the way. It is on the corner of Ardmillan Terrace and Slateford Road.
I love all the turrets and gables.

Spring

Spring has arrived!
Today I was able to do some gardening for the first time this year.
Things are starting to grow, green shoots and buds appearing everywhere...
and so are the weeds!
So I chose this as my photo of the day,
because nothing says Spring like daffodils-
and you can see the weeds too!



I found these delicate flowers hiding in the undergrowth.
I don't know what they are, but they sure are pretty!


Some more things starting to grow-
I think the big buds belong to a peony of some kind

Gable

I was in Leith today.
This is the gable end of the old Dr Bell's hospital
on Great Junction Street.
