Of bees, pollen, coffee and a general change of season! A few personal highlights from April 2025, captured in tiny wee snapshots.
This is my latest monthly selection of snapshots of things that caught my eye over these past few weeks, comprising the month of April 2025 (but starting with an image or two from the closing days of March, picking up from my previous monthly pictorial round-up).
Sunday 30 March 2025: Change of season

Monday 31 March 2025: Gorse perspectives
Some Ashdown Forest gorse in close-up.

Truly gorgeous break of dawn tones to the sky of this particular Friday morning.
Some rather serious pollen supping underway in today’s lovely sunshine.
Sunday 6 April 2025: Ashdown abundance
An abundance of beautiful colour.
Monday 7 April 2025: Sunlight dances
Sunlight dances through the steam from the coffee cup.
Saturday 19 April 2025: Look up
The softest of tones to the Easter Saturday dawn sky.
Above us only blossom.
A moss-laden tree at a distinctly odd angle.
Thursday 24 April 2025: Meg!
