Anglesey Abbey

I was advised that there were Hot Cross Scones at Anglesey Abbey so off I headed.

On arrival there were 5 !! types of scone but no hot cross! I asked and was told they were served in the afternoon but she would get me one 😍

So let's look at some spring colour.

The scone of the month is a simnell scone... it had to be done.

Around the neighbourhood

I see the British weather is playing true to form. One day nice the next poor.

I need to head to a National Trust property to find a hot cross scone. I think my best chance is Anglesey Abbey as Ickworth seems to have given up on Scone of the month. Flatford no doubt has them but is probably still a bit damp.

Anyway Chiffchaffs were about before I left for Venice and I have seen Brimstone, Peacock and Comma butterflies. 

The Mallards are getting a little frisky and the coots territorial.

We have 4 Canada Geese at New Hall. I wonder if they are two pairs?

No foals yet.  This is one of last years.

Hopefully we'll get some more settled weather soon.
