Really breezy down here today but sunny. Bees flying but getting a bit of a shock I think when they get out of the shelter of the apiary ! Loads of horse chestnut in full blossom, apple trees and pear trees in bloom and the plums. Loganberries in full bloom and bees all over them (not mine sadly) and the summer raspberries are about a week away from the first flowers - buds well advanced (very early), Strawberries covered in flowers and the blackcurrants well budded. All still well ahead of most years by at least a couple of weeks.
Bluebells have been out for over a week now and starting to go over.
