Early spring is a time of change as our winter birds depart on their long migrations north to their nesting grounds, and the wildflower fashion show begins. Say goodbye to aerial acrobatics of our winter flocks of shorebirds, as we welcome the purple haze of wild heliotrope, the cheerful orange flags of wind poppy and the snow-white splash of popcorn flower – like a popcorn machine gone wild!
