Flower Power

This morning I was playing badminton and walked to and from the Leisure Centre through both Castle and Ward Park as well as the Walled Garden taking photos as I went.  I did take a few birds and video and I will show those aonther day as I don't have the time to up load the video.  So today again it is mainly flowers and I have experimented a bit with some of the shots.


Above is the entrance to the Walled Garden and is just opposite the car park for the new Lesisure Centre and the groundsmen are still plaing turf and flower beds.  These are 2 different photos of the turf they were laying today.

 Thanking you for visiting today.  I would love you to look in again.

  3. Hi Tex I will go back again in the 'summer' and take another photo of tunnel to see how it has changed. Thanks for comment. I don't think the turf would taste like cinnnamon!! Margaret

    1. From today's selection, I'd say the turf, and the last Iris.

  9. Hi Margaret, It's nice to meet you. Sounds like you have and have had an exciting, fulfilling life... Hubby and I are retired and live on the mountain in Tennessee.. We love being out in nature --and spend our time hiking and searching for waterfalls. We also love gardening (Flowers) --and have about 57 different varieties of Hybrid Tea and Grandiflora Roses in our yard --in addition to many other flowers. I am into Genealogy --and in my 'spare' time (ha), I am a backyard birder. In fact, tomorrow's blog post is one you won't want to miss since you love birds too.

    Looks like you had a wonderful walk. I love the Walled Garden --and it reminds me of the Biltmore House and Gardens which we visit quite often near us. Beautiful flowers.

    Thanks for coming to my blog --and I hope you will return.

    Hugs,
    Betsy
