Washing dishes is a pleasure when this is your view from the kitchen sink...
Some of the blossoms are still buds...
and some are hanging on to their furry winter hats.
A few blossoms lean down to meet the periwinkle on the ground...
When you look closely, you can see that some little flies have decided the flowers are as sweet as they look.
The season is all too short for these blooms but it will be nice to see the new leaves, too. Then the tree will provide quite deep shade for the flowering plants below.

These are great pictures. You've even captured the tiny flies! I don't remember magnolias looking like this, I wonder if there are different kinds? I love the way you've shown the buds in different stages.
Beautiful photographs of a beautiful blossom. What did we do before digital cameras??
Wonderful photos of this lovely, fragrant flower!
How beautiful! Oh I would love a view like that. =)
Love these, hope the smell is just as stunning!
Beautiful white!! I plan to show some whites for Easter.
I am so jealous! They are beautiful. I will check out the ones I am following on 17th Street now that I am back.
This is a very beautiful variety of magnolia. I saw one similar to this at the Toronto Botanical Garden. It's a great tree. Unfortunately, I cannot grow it where I live. Bummer!
aw, i love magnolias! Not a bad tree to have outside the kitchen window, i agree :) Pretty photos!
I love it, it seems so fresh.
How I wish to find one of that in here.
Til next!

Oh, I would love to do dishes at your house. Actually I like my kitchen window too. I have a fir tree and lots of birds come to sit, rest, preen or play in it.
What BEAUTIFUL Spring captures you've shared here ... lovely post! Thanks ;-)
Hugs and blessings,
Gorgeous shots, I am seeing a lot of magnolia in full bloom here also. I wish I had one out my kitchen window.
I love your macro shot with the little flies. I have one today on my other blog with a honey bee. Spring has arrived in the PNW!
