Daily Photo - Spring in England

A total departure from the usual Egyptian theme in today's photo (I don't have even the smallest Egypt-related excuse for this post!). It was such a lovely day yesterday that I decided to take my notes into the sunshine. I spent the afternoon at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, near Richmond, at the side of the Thames. These are just some cheerful photos of what Kew looks like this week - miles of crocus and daffodil beds outdoors, and the hot houses thriving as usual. I shared my lunch with a small robin who sat brazenly at my feet waiting to be fed. If you're interested there's a terrific Henry Moore display at the moment, with 28 of Moore's large-scale sculptures scattered through the gardens. I'll return to Egyptain themes tomorrow!
