On 21st March it was grey, overcast and chilly. In the cemetery primroses were plentiful as were daisies and, to a lesser extent dog violets. Daffodils were at their peak and leaves were beginning to open and in the woodland cemetery a fine willow was coming into flower. There several groups of magpies, especially in the Horsefield. Gulls and wood pigeons were also in evidence. The best bird sighting was of a female sparrowhawk as she streaked through on her quest for small avian prey. We were excited to see deer slots around the perimeter of the woodland cemetery, presumably roe or, perhaps, muntjac.
