Spring Happenings at an Spéir
The first ‘pioneer’ plants are coming up. Goats Willow has underplanted itself around some of the new native trees and in the gaps. Hopefully these will provide extra shelter to the new trees from the winds.

Happy May Day (La Bealtaine)
Wildflowers picked from an Spéir Ark - placed at the door of my studio for good luck then onto a friend.
Lá Bealtaine (Irish)
Beltane or Beltain is the Gaelic May Day festival. Most commonly it is held on 1 May, or about halfway between the spring equinox and the summer solstice. Historically, it was widely observed throughout Ireland, Scotland and the Isle of Man.
Also called: Lá Bealtaine (Irish), Là Bealltainn (Scottish Gaelic)
