Signs of springFlickr photos to lift the spirits

Even with much of this weekend’s atten­tion on Robert Webb’s rubber leo­tard, it was impossible to miss nature’s own inter­pret­a­tion of ‘What a Feel­ing’, as spring burst forth.

Sud­denly there were but­ter­flies – I coun­ted four this week­end, a couple of whites of some descrip­tion, and two pristine lemon-​​coloured Brim­stones, rather like this one.

There were two-​​tone Chiffchaffs singing away in a couple of places. And every­where there were over­size bumble­bees, crash­ing around madly as if drunk on the sun.

I had my camera out for much of the week­end, but I think the warm air must have gone to my head too, because I failed to get any great shots to remem­ber it by.

Hap­pily, the ever-​​impressive com­munity at Flickr have done the job: here are a couple of our favourites.
