Spring is one of the four temperate seasons, the transition period between winter and summer. Spring and "springtime" refer to the season, and broadly to ideas of rebirth, renewal and regrowth. The specific definition of the exact timing of "spring" varies according to local climate, cultures and customs. At the spring equinox, days are close to 12 hours long with day length increasing as the season progresses. (Wikipedia)

A favourite time of the year for me and probably lots of other people, I get excited but also bewildered with everything that is going on, I get stressed because I have so many choices, that its hard to pick one thing to go to see and photograph.

Wildlife to look out for at this time of year.

Willow Tree Catkins	Common Bluebell (Hyacinthoides non-scripta)	Common Toads - Male and Female (Bufo bufo)
Common Butterbur (Petasites hybridus)	Canada Goose Gosling (Branta canadensis)	Common Hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna)
Mandarin Duck - Male and Female (Aix galericulata)	Great Crested Grebe - Male and Female (Podiceps cristatus)	Tufted Duck - Male and Female (Aythya fuligula)

I will be revising this article at some stage, bit more to add to it.
