BIRDS are taking to skies as the warm weather is enjoyed by many across Hampshire.

Families of ducks and swans flap in the water while flowers bloom across the region, as pictured by members of our Daily Echo Camera Club.

A sheep has also been spotted making its way across a bed of grass, while the work of the NHS healthcare workers on the Covid-19 frontline is also reflected in a painting that appeared in the New Forest.

We picked a handful of our favourite pictures captured by our members, who yet again showcased the beauty surrounding our homes.

They were placed into this double page spread to give you some Monday motivation for the week ahead.
