Parc Howard - treading carefully

My birthday treat ... a walk in the park with Kathryn - bliss!


Click on the first photo to see them all full-size without the captions



I can see the park though the railings but...


It might not be possible to walk in the grounds :-(


... because some of the huge trees are being cut down


The views are so tempting...


... that we decide to take a closer look


There are gorgeous crocuses


The duck houses are water logged


There is an abundance of colour despite the time of year - February

The ducks don't seem to mind the deeper water


Snowdrops are another welcome sight


Is the water warm?


It's this way!


Time for a short nap?


What a lovely lead in to the house


Play time


An avenue of trees


The paddling pool in its winter phase


Alongside the bowling green


Cute!


The back of the house


That's all folks!
