The
lilac-purple flowers of Teasel were
noticed for the first time this year on the edge of the cyclepath from
Botolphs to Annington Sewer and the north. Goldfinches
were prominent as well with one small chirm noted visiting the Teasels.

South-east England woke after an overnight flurry of snow and the upper slopes of Mill Hill were covered in a layer averaging about 50 mm. These Teasels were still covered in snow at midday. |
