Abington Naturewatch: A few spring flowers

Andy M walked around Granta Park on 11th, and noted a number of flowers starting to come out.
The Cowslip flower buds were starting to appear from the leaf-whorls on the 'entrance meadow' on GP, and there were many Daisies across the GP cricket green. One or two small clumps of Red Dead Nettle were out this week, and many Celandine in flower along the riverbank of Cook's Meadow, and on GP near around the foot bridge. One of two Speedwell also coming out near Riverside, and many large clumps of both mauve and white Sweet Violet out on GP (and wild in the garden).

He also noted a few slightly sleepy Buff-tailed Bumblebees out and about, as well as a rather prolific fungus growing on an old stump.
