Sunny, warm day (+15 C), however, the wind from the sea was brisk. The birds have now returned from Africa to make their nests on the Kemiö island (which is the hottest place in Finland most of the year).
The grass is green, hepaticas and the first garden flowers are in blossom. I saw the first yellow brimstone yesterday above the daffodils.

Some herbs pop up already in my small herbarium, but have to wait until the next weekend to make a parsnip puree flavored with lovage. I had a change to taste it last May in Champagne, France, and it was delicious.
