Wasps are appearing...

it means that spring is in the air.  I decided to go for a walk around the garden looking for little critters and was amazed at what I found.  Bees, wasps, flies, steely blue ladybirds, caterpillars, as well as the beginning of blossom on the nectarine tree, figs just starting to form.  The evenings are starting to lengthen, but unfortunately the temperatures are still rather miserable.
