As my pictures from our walk in the woods turned out to be so disappointing, I decided to search Flickr for a picture of the catkins. And boy did I find a cracker! This picture perfectly captures everything I wanted to say about my discovery that day. Andrew Kearton has very kindly given his permission for me to post this picture. You should seriously head over to Flickr and have a look through his photostream – there are some truly breathtaking shots, particularly of plants. Thank you Andy, for your generosity and your talent…
