Winter with signs of Spring

Last week there was a special full moon because of its relative closeness to the Earth.The night time weather was  frosty,  therefore, the moon was clearly visible at night and well into the following morning as you can see from the pictures below.



Despite the very cold nights Spring flowers are still progressing and I found snowdrops, crocus and heather flowering in my garden.


Since the above photographs were taken the weather has become colder with nighttime temperatures as low as -7C. I have also had some more snow which is hanging around so I will have a look tomorrow to see if I can find more signs of Spring.

More signs of Spring in the pictures below showing viburnum,winter jasmine and a white hellebore in bud.




Spring is definitely on its way.
