1st day of spring
01st February 2015
Today is St Brigid's day, traditionally held as the first day of spring in Ireland. Of course these days children are taught that the first day of spring is 1st March, due to the higher temperatures. Anyway I went out for the sunrise this morning and was not disappointed the sun coming over the horizon certainly heralded a new day, and I thought it special enough to herald a new season as well!. The rest of the day certainly felt like spring, a beautiful calm day, and warm, in the sun, but very cold in the shade.
