An Afternoon Stroll

The sun finally showed its face today so Hitty Madge took the two Hitty Helen's to our local park.  

They were well wrapped up warm as although the sun was out, it was very cold!

Looking down into the park.

Chatting about the litter they found just the other side of this plant and what a shame it was that people didn't take more care of their environment.

This tree has been dead a long time but makes quite a feature throughout the year and is named the 'Wildlife Tree' due to all the different wildlife flora and fauna that make it their home.

They sit and watch the ducks on one of the ponds.

I quite think they enjoyed a jolly good natter as well!

Hitty Helen Robertson found some snowdrops. 

More snowdrops!  Hitty Helen Miller, leaned in to see if they had any scent.

Hitty Helen R found some very pretty yellow blossom that she said reminded her of sunshine and summer.  

Hitty Helen M found another flowering plant whose name escapes us at the moment - we used to have the green version in our garden.

Doing some more sitting while they watch some birds on the water.  There seemed to be more birds than usual, and some were taking quite an interest in each other!  Perhaps Spring is on its way?

In the distance  can be seen what used to be Oakmere House, of which Oakmere Park were its grounds,  but is now a 'Beefeater' Restaurant

Hello Crow!

The girls enjoyed their afternoon walk.
