Hinton Ampner.. in more sunshine than I was expecting..

The sun came up this morning and looked lovely out of the bedroom window.

Where to?  I headed off to Hinton Ampner.... been a couple of times before but never at this time of the year.


However as I drove through Cowdray I stopped by the pond as the sun was shining and the birds were about..





The sun had gone by the time I arrived....






but gradually it came out again in fits and starts..










Someone with a sense of humour..



  Promise of Spring



And carpets of Snowdrops and Aconites :D





























Just the hall was open today...




















and lunch?  well a scone of course... and a very good fruity one.... so a 4.5 out of 5 for today's score :D


Some of the paths were closed as very muddy and getting quite worn as a result.. nice to see preservation in action... :)

Lovely photos Tricia and wonderful to see the carpet of aconites and snowdrops. It looks as though there are wonderful views from the house and garden of surrounding countryside :)
