1st May – Wood Anemones

Linking to Jan’s First of the Month

1st May is a holiday here because it’s Labour Day.
It’s also a popular day to go on outings and look at spring flowers. However
I didn’t really feel like going into the town centre to watch parades and political speeches. Nor did I have enough energy for a proper outing. So I just went for a short walk. There isn’t really a whole lot of wild nature close by where I live – but there a few patches of it. Like this hill, with one walkpath on either side, between two streets. With the wood anemones spreading like a white carpet under the trees, this short and sweet time of year called spring.

When I first saw these, I thought you had been traipsing around in the woods! They are beautiful and look biggerer than I thought they might be.

Wood anemones are one of the most attractive of flowers for their purity and simplicity - like snowdrops.
