Gorse FOTD

I have chosen gorse as my flower of the day after reading that children used to use the flowers to make a dye to decorate Easter eggs in the past. In England scrub land is alive with the bright yellow gorse flowers. It is an evergreen shrub and the sharp needle like leaves make it difficult for animals to eat.

Here it is going to be a very strange Easter with the churches shut and friends and family unable to visit.

I would like to wish you a happy Easter where ever you are.
