is Spring really here?

“But Mother Bear,” said Alfie, “when will it be Spring?”
And Mother Bear, already half asleep, grunted, “When the sun is bright and the air is warm, then it will be Spring.”
When will it be Spring” by Catherine Walters

We had two wonderfully warm days here in London and I’m wondering if Spring is truly here or if this is just a short preview before the usual February cold snap. Nevertheless yesterday we went for a long walk in the park and enjoyed feeling warm, seeing all the new flowers and listening to bird songs.

Well, it's not spring or any semblence of it over here. It was bitterly cold and blustery today. I am SO ready for spring though.

Beautiful pictures. Are they from today?

Yes, the photos are from our weekend walk. The weather here is still great, but sounds like it will get colder/rain on the weekend.
