No snow just snowdrops at Fyvie Castle


Welcome friends! Once again I am delighted to be joining the LLB gang for Nature Friday

This week's expedition is to Fyvie Castle in Aberdeenshire. I am pleased to report that in winter the castle is closed - which means that dogs get taken for walks round the grounds rather than being locked in cars while the humans disappear inside the building for hours and hours looking at old furniture and paintings (yawn). 


Hmm. I think I can smell spring in the air.

And oh look a carpet of snowdrops! Isn't it pretty?

After last week's 'squashed daffodils incident' I hope you can see I am being careful where I sit. 

Happy Nature Friday folks!

  6. That looks like a beautiful place to go for a walk. We love seeing those pretty little flowers too since we won't see any flowers for months.

  7. Those are big snowdrop fields. Beautiful. And I think you are very clever not sitting on them.

  9. Oh Bertie that looks much more beautiful that what we have right now. Wed we woke up to about 6 inches of snow that drifted terribly and kept snowing most of the day. Bitter cold this morning -6 degrees F. We can't wait for spring and flowers

  10. Although we are biased about the joy and beauty of snow, we think those snowdrops are very pretty - they sure do make a beautiful backdrop for handsome Bertie!!!
