Springtime, glorious springtime, the sun is shining, the skies are blue, the trees are in bud, and water is running freely everywhere in the village. When we took our early morning walk just after sunrise, there were pools, ponds, puddles and rivelets everywhere we looked, and Cassie and I were out and about much longer than we usually are.This morning, the air is full of the music of returning geese, and a solitary heron flew overhead during our rambles, the first great blue bird of the season. Chickadees in the park are singing courting ballads, starlings are flying about with nesting materials in their bright yellow beaks, robins are foraging in the garden, and even the chipmunks are frisky.
We had all better enjoy these days, for in a day or two, there will be snow. . .

What a wonderously wet and alive photograph, I'm so glad your world is melting into spring.
That is a wonderful, splendid photo. Did you take that? I'm sure you did.

Just a quiet thank you for sharing. Always welcome, your words and images.
How lovely your part of the world is! We still have snow and snow and snow and our only birds are crows, ravens, and eagles. I like crows, ravens, and eagles -- but I'm ready to see the little guys with the pretty songs.
You are right in saying that we have to make the most of lovely spring days - winter hasn't quite finished with us yet and still gets the upper hand sometimes.
