Bright, but cool in exposed areas.
I drive past this location most days, so I can keep an eye out. The Blackthorn - Prunus spinosa - appeared last year on 13th March, so it's 8 days earlier, this year.
I suppose it had to happen sometime. The Willow has leaves at last. From a distance, Willows have been looking 'green' for about a week or so.
This brown Liverwort grows in the centre of a path in the forestry. The right-hand close-up shows the gemmae cups. Specimen about 8 cm. across. Apparently it's dead.
