Springtime - again.

Early signs of Spring had a bit of a blip over the weekend,   it was cloudy and drizzley and  definitely not sunny or warm.   We had the wood burner alight all day yesterday as it was so damp and miserable outside.



So back to spring sunshine today,  we went for our early morning walk up to Yegen, I didn't even need my fleece on as the sun was so warm even at 8am,   there is some snow visible in the distance maybe from the weekend rain, 



I saw either swallows or house martins flying around this craggy section of rocks,   but too fast for me to catch on camera, 


These agaves are about to tip over I think,  once they have flowered and the seed pods opened,  then the stalk dries up and eventually  falls over.  Sometimes the whole plant turns turtle.  El Golco is just visible between the olive trees.


Unfortunately the forecast for tomorrow says showers late morning,  at least we'll be able to get a good walk in before that happens,  assuming of course that the forecast is correct ..... it isn't always!
