Signs of winter on the first day of spring

I went for my usual walk around Moor Park yesterday. As I went past Deepdale I saw icicles hanging from the statue of Sir Tom Finney. The weather was sunny but cold. Many lesser celandine were pointing their heads towards the sun although most of the daffodils had been "borrowed" for Mother's Day gifts.

Later we went to the area of Winmarleigh where we saw that someone was doing a controlled burn of bracken or heather on the fells around Fairsnape
