Winter Aconite


 I found a small clump of this growing in the bushes at Ferrymoor the other day. It is one of the first wildflowers to appear early in the year. I love the bright yellow buds and when they open they are like stars. Hopefully we will see a lot more wildflowers growing down there as we gradually get closer to Spring.
