Looking for any clue that spring is arriving. I love the subtle colors of this budding branch and hope to figure out what kind of tree it is once the leaves come out.

Vines grab and grow onto whatever they can find reaching for the sun. Happy Cinco de Mayo

Spring has arrived and there’s a nice long weekend ahead to enjoy it.

There is a slight chance of some sun today, maybe my crocuses will open one more time and it will be light enough to see them this evening.

Spring is not all warmth and sunshine. It’s cold and gray and rainy, but the willows were ready to leaf out just the other day.

Spring Everywhere

It was one gorgeous weekend. I planted pansies and took some photos of the flowers blooming in my yard. These are Hellebores, more abundant this year than ever before.

It’s always a special day when the first crocuses bloom in the garden and that day was yesterday.
