Poppy does enjoy a scamper through the woods at McDonald Park in Ellon.  Lily joins in but young Poppy is usually far in the lead.  It is a great place for a walk among the mature trees, your feet crunching through the leaves.

We all enjoyed our walk today, not least because the snowdrops are in full bloom.  It seems that there are snowdrops everywhere just now, at the road sides, on the banks down to the field in Hatton, and of course among the trees in so many different places in the countryside.  Our single snowdrop under our hydrangea bush in our garden looks a little pathetic, though!
