Spring has been elusive in the eastern woodlands this year. A late snow and chilly temperatures has kept the spring flowers at bay. However the first signs of new life have started to appear.
If you look closely at the woodland floor you will see the first tiny blooms of spring.
Green life is starting to reclaim the barren rocks.
Out of the decay of winter, ferns and mosses begin to rejuvenate the woodland forrest floor.
You might have to look for it, but spring has begun to bring new life to the gloomy eastern winter forests.
It is exciting to see that change is happening, no mater how slowly.
I hope this inspires you to get outdoors and look for signs of spring in a woodland near you.
