We meet the farmer who tells us that January saw twice as much sunshine as January last year. It's also been much warmer. He's hopeful that his Brussel Sprouts yields will be up - substantially .
On the beach groups of tourists are standing on the dunes taking photos of the sunrise. Spanish and French accents heard together with a smattering of American and Canadian. Can the influx of visitors really be kicking off again so soon ? The weak Pound and the strong Dollar seem to be extending the usual tourist season.
Amazingly the first of the years woodland Daffodils are coming into flower. I'd reckon everything is a full two and possibly three weeks early.
So starts a Sunday morning in a small village in Fife.

Thank you.

I've been beaten to the naming of the plants! That's a lovely stand of them. The time for them is fine - but definitely seems early for the Snowdrops and Daffs... YAM xx
C-A-T-S know, and have long memories, some C-A-T-S give that look to anyone who has not fed them recently. Great photo of the look.
Indeed, The Manchurian Candidate seems apt.
Thank you. I borrowed "glare" from your post as my opening Wordle word today and got it in two. (I had a beat-up ginger cat as my best friend as a child so couldn't resist.) It is otherwise a rather terrible day, as tarrifs are starting to seem like the least of our problems, but it was a good start, as were your beautiful photos.
Early or not, it's good to see spring flowers blooming.
You've beautifully captured the promise of a soon returning spring. Cats wear disdain so well.
Wonderful article about Togo!
