Nous sommes le mercredi vingt deux fevrier
Returning home this morning from dog walking we spotted the first cowslips (coucou) of the year. In a very favoured spot these will be joined soon by thousands more. Primula veris is a member of the primrose family and the common name in French of "coucou" or "fleur de coucou" reminds us that it announces the imminent arrival of spring.
