Whichever one we are currently in! I love the changes of the seasons.

May the days are long and here in the south west we usually have some sunny weather.
The trees and shrubs are full of blossom and the garden looks so beautiful.

Birds singing

April. The earth is beginning to warm and new life is emerging. Lambs in the fields, the first of the summer birds returning from their winter homes. Spring flowers in the fields and garden, buttercups, daisies and dandelions. It's also the month of my wedding anniversary.

Late September. Those bright, clear, sunny days when the sky is the deepest, clearest blue and the leaves on the trees are beginning to turn to reds and golds. The weather is often just warm enough to get out and about with just a light jacket on. Hedgerows are beginning to show their blackberries, elderberries, sloes and cob nuts. And the best bit is that amazing smell, early in the morning when you first go outdoors and can smell slightly warmed damp earth and the dew on the grass looks like carpets of diamonds. I love early autumn, even the misty grey ethereal days. Worth waiting 9 months for!

Mine is also July just love the warmer weather and July is when we often take an early holiday before the schools break up.

Probably July.

August seems to be a bit of a let down, weatherwise, nowadays.

Mine has always been March. Today is warm enough to open the patio doors for the first time. The frogs are croaking in the pond and there is the first pod of frogspawn. I heard the first blackbird singing. And of course, all the spring bulbs are looking glorious.

All this is a taste of summer to come. My heart lifts and I feel young again.
