Around Wold Newton in Lincolnshire.

 Our first walk at Wold Newton since last November.

Some activity at the farm in Wold newton.



This small quarry has been dug out of the Lincolnshire hillside recently to provide
Limestone for a project further along the road. 
 It shows the Chalky nature of the Lincolnshire Wolds.



Plenty of blossom around now.


Primula in the grass verge of the road.

Trees still waiting for their leaves to open.

A few Spring flowers, April 2021.

 Some flowers from my garden this Spring.

Winter Pansies.

Grape Hyacinths (Muscari) photographed after the rain.
I love the "surprised" look of the flower at the top.

Not a flower but I liked the texture & shapes.

Cows in the Lincolnshire Wolds.

 Following my last post (Horses in the Lincolnshire Wolds) I'm following it up with a delightful moment we spotted when out walking.

Horses in the Lincolnshire Wolds.

 Lincolnshire is a mostly rural county and very popular for horse riders.  We see these horses regularly on one of our favourite walks and they usually amble over to see us.

Springtime in the Lincolnshire Wolds.

 Spring scenes.

This and the previous walk  was, by necessity only a short drive from our house.  The current restrictions enable us to go out to exercise but to remain "local".  So, until we can venture further, it will have to be the usual, familiar venues.

Mostly pictures from one of our favourite walks but a couple from our garden.



Celandine.

New buds.

A few Daffs in our gardfen.



New leaves on Hawthorn.

Springtime.

 The "Lockdown" has been eased a little and we can go out locally so we had a walk in the Lincolnshire Wolds.  The hedgerows have greened up and Spring flowers are everywhere.
