Normanby Park’s woodlands are looking superb at the moment with Bluebells and wild Garlic in flower and indeed our own pond and garden are in full bloom with Wood Stitchwort, Yellow Archangel, Woodruff, Pink Campion, Cuckoo Flower and Marsh Marigold just a few of the plants at their spring best but just drive a half a mile away to the Normanby Estates Community Woodland and you will find the whole of the stretch of Bagmoor Lane sealed off with a sign “Caution keep off area sprayed with herbicide”, presumably the Blackcaps, Willow Warblers, Chiffchaff, Whitethroats, Lesser Whitethroats, Wrens and Robins which nest close to the ground were considered before this took place?
Beautiful garden pics. Your pond looks good despite the ducks!
