Morning glory

Bright sunny morning after a light frost.

The wood pigeons held the floor for half an hour or so. One pair prancing about on the lawn, possibly the start of a serious relationship. Another pair, more calmly, ate plum blossom, looking slightly large and silly on the swaying sprigs of the slightly small plum tree. Newly opened white flowers very pretty. Other pigeons in the background, engaged on this and that.

Followed up by a very red breasted robin among the bursting leaf buds of the nut tree, with the perch in the plum tree now taken by a small fluffy brown bird, a bit bigger than a regular sparrow, perhaps a fledgling sparrow.
