The lambs tails have gone but we have pussy willow. Every willow tree has many willow catkins. Hazel catkins are earlier. Perhaps every hazel tree will have a lot of hazel nuts in the autumn. Willows do not have nuts. There is no cuckoo but there are bluebells (cuckoo flowers). Leaves of bluebells and three-cornered leek are narrow, but primrose leaves are wide. The little boy and I, we made prints with them (and with a fern).
