Spring, A Time of Wonder

 

Hi Y’all!

P1180465

I know a lot of y’all are still trying to dig out of some record snow falls…so I thought I’d show you that spring is already headed your way!

Pear Blossoms.

Egrets dressed in their mating plumage.

Banded geese passing through on their way north.  A few will join local flocks and stay here to nest.

Turtles out sunning themselves among the sprouting daylilies and iris.

Sleep tight my friends…

Y’all come back now!

    I will sleep tight now, knowing that Spring is coming. I am ready. Oh I like the snow. But I LOVE the Spring. Thanks for the reminder that it is coming. We can lose sight of that sometimes.
    Blessings,
    Goose

    I'm glad Spring is on they way! We've got some daffodils starting to come up here too but they aren't nearly as pretty as yours.

    What beautiful photos--We have very few signs of spring here, and you've given me something to look forward to.

    Enjoy your weekend!

    Beautiful photos my friend, thanks for the hope of spring, it can't get here soon enough!

    Why do those birds have bands on their necks? I'm assuming for tracking purposes but does it hurt the bird or restrict their eating?

    we're mighty close to spring here in texas - not quite as close as you are there.

    love the egret plumes.

    Ooh, you do look like you're settling into spring.

    whereas in my area....well, it's something like 12 degrees today. And super windy.

    So if you want to keep those lovely spring-y pictures coming, I won't object!
