Snowdrops at Rode Hall in Cheshire

Rode Hall is a small stately home which opens especially for its snowdrop walks at this time of year. I'm no expert on snowdrops, in fact they all look pretty much the same to me, but it was an excuse for an outing with family of all ages, and the weather was nice enough (if chilly) to make it a real pleasure.


You can't tell from this photo but it was possible to see herons nesting in the trees on this island in the lake. There's something quite mad about a bird as big as a heron landing in the fragile twigs at the top of a big tree, but they manage it.
