Chilly and Bright

Brrh! Having been lulled into a false sense of gentle weather over the past few days, I took a long walk without a jacket. Big mistake! However fast I walked, I could not get warm. I'm thinking of that old saying about not casting a clout 'til May be out.

This fine Kerria Japonica grows in a neighbour's garden. It's especially floriferous this year.
