Lord #Pheasant presiding over two of his three hens in Shandy Hall gardens. You can see his 'ear tufts' and where the Pheasant's eye narcisssus gets its name.

Narcissus Poeticus, or Pheasant's Eye, in bloom now in Shandy Hall gardens. While working I came within a hand's reach of a well-camouflaged nesting #pheasant, but she didn't twitch a feather. Later I saw 20 variously coloured eggs!

Closed though we are, gardening still goes on, and so does spring. I will continue to post photos from Shandy Hall gardens.

Happy #VernalEquinox from Shandy Hall gardens. Here's hoping that the increase in light and sunshine will strengthen all our spirits.
