Spring is in the air (and has been for some time).

The first chicks are around (no photos yet) and while Easter for many is when they start their first serious boating of the year for me it's when I often give Cosmos a major spring sorting out, sprucing up. This year should be the biggest ever as I'm intending to give her a major bit of an overhaul, inside and out. Meanwhile, the surroundings, as usual, are gorgeous :)

P.S. The frayed rope is from where birds have been coming down and pulling pieces of rope out for nesting material - double :) :)
