Rufford Old Hall with it's squirrel topiary, variegated camelia, snowdrops & hellebores, bees! pretty clouds in blue skies, and great reflections on the canal
#JoinMeOnMyWalk from yesterday! So lucky to find sunshine at #Rufford in the morning, certainly wasn't forecast, lovely to see the snowdrops & crocus at #RuffordOldHall and the canal reflections were so pretty. Back to dull grey when we got home! #CanalRiverTrust @photohour.bsky.social #Lancashire
A tiny honey bee enjoying yesterday's brief sunshine, love his little head shadow
#MacroMonday So very happy to see this cute honey #bee out and about at #RuffordOldHall yesterday, one of at least a dozen feasting on mahonia, with 2 bumble bees around enjoying the snowdrops. @macrohour.bsky.social #Lancashire #pollinators #joy
A beautiful variegated camelia yesterday and yes that was blue sky behind it
#MagentaMonday with a fabulous variegated camelia at #RuffordOldHall yesterday. Yes in blue sky and sunshine ,😍 #Lancashire #bloomscrolling #DailyFlowers
Clockwise from top left; Champion trees, a cute snowman from the trail, topiary squirrels, wonderful skies, a miniature barge planter, tree reflections on the canal, the front of the house, swans on the Christmas tree, and a real barge on the canal.
#JoinMeOnMyWalk A weekend of festive events, so this evening I shall share our visit to #RuffordOldHall, dressed for #Christmas with a tree bearing royal swans, as miniature barge outside and a lovely walk along the canal, sadly no kingfisher's seen @photohour.bsky.social @nationaltrust.org.uk
Photograph of Rufford Old Hall in Lancashire. Distinct C16th Tudor Great Hall wing in its black and white finery adjoined by its newer C18th accommodation block of soft red brick symmetrical features. In front is a green lawn. Blue sky overhead. On the far right of the photograph appears a dinosaur. It isn’t but a person in a padded coat taking a photo 😂

Plenty of Snowdrops both doubles and singles in view of Rufford Old Hall, a friendly robin and gorgeous sky reflections on the canal in my collage from yesterday.
#JoinMeOnMyWalk Lovely morning at #RuffordOldHall yesterday, taking in the #snowdrops & historic garden. We were serenaded by a friendly robin too, with woodpecker knocking further down. Perfect place to visit as we await spring. @photohour.bsky.social @nationaltrust.bsky.social #Lancashire #joy
Snowdrops on the lawn in front of Rufford Old Hall yesterday.
Snowdrops everywhere at #RuffordOldHall yesterday, so lovely to see, the woodland walk was full of them too, with crocus on their way too. #Snowdrops @nationaltrust.bsky.social #vitaminN #joy
