Garden cartoon. Signs of spring in the garden – the first slug of spring
Humorous illustration showing the first butterflies of spring and the first slugs of spring.
In the early months of the year gardeners are eagerly on the lookout for the first signs of spring.
They are pleased to see the first green shoots of spring, the first butterflies and the first swallows of summer. However the changing seasons also bring less welcome visitors such as, as shown in this cartoon, slugs and snails.
