What to see in March & early Spring

As nature wakes up from its winter slumber, the birds start to sing and the blossom appears.

Corney Reach in Chiswick

Wandsworth Park in Putney

And the insects start to appear

Peacock Butterfly

Orange Tip Butterfly

Bee Flies

Frogs miraculously appear from the undergrowth and enter our ponds to breed

Birds begin to look for a mate and start nesting

Magnolias show off their magnificence

Royal Star Magnolia

The Head of the River Race 2022

Rowing reaches its zenith with The Heads of the River races, followed by The Boat Race the next weekend, just before Easter.

Two of my favourite spring flowers are Ladysmock and Pussy Willow

Ladysmock - normally found around water

Pussy Willow
