The maple twig's bud is definitely growing.
And the copper beech is changing, too. Just a bit more subtly.
After Monday's frost, we have had a mild week. I think it's mild anyway. In fact, I even think spring is on the way. Although I am probably guilty of wishful thinking.
However, the snowdrops are up at least three inches. And a hummingbird has been visiting some red flowers on a tree in our neighbor's yard. I can't get a good photo of either the bird or the flowers and I don't know what the tree is. But it's all good news. Right?
What's up with all this spring crap? LOL We still haven't had much of a winter to speak of. I don't like it like this- nature gets fooled and things bloom and then we get winter. I can't really appreciated spring without winter. And I never appreciate summer. I sound like an old grouch, don't I? LOL
ReplyDeleteThe colours in your first photo are really lovely, so bright and springy!
ReplyDeleteI love to see buds on the trees, that hope of new life. Even though we hadn't much of a winter, I'm still glad to wave it goodbye and get on with spring.
