Furlong Oak, Allestree
Yesterday the thaw had started, so I rather optimistically posted what I hoped was an encouraging image of the spring to come. But the day was far from encouraging….. obviously still cold, but with no wind and slight increase in temperature melting the snow we ended up with a very foggy day.
The snow was melting but as always the ice on what was a solidly frozen lake will be the last to vanish.
I wonder if that will be the worst of the winter for this year….. or will it have another surprise up it sleeve?
There is of course the old country saying that says
” If March comes in like a Lion…it will go out like a Lamb”
but some also quote the reverse.
