Canvas Colors Begin

At the end of February I posted 3 pictures under the theme of a "Blank Canvas" awaiting Mother Nature to start filling in the colors. There have been a lot of changes in the past 4 or 5 weeks.


These three pictures are more or less from the same vantage point I used for the the three photos in the "Blank Canvas" post. You can click on the photo's to see normal picture size.


These are additional pictures I took today just 'cuz I love spring.


The first lip-lips (tulips) to show their petals. Short lived but beautiful.

These soon to flower lip-lips will have orange/yellow petals. Maybe tomorrow or even later today...

This is the definition of yellow. Also note the berry looking blossoms on the Purple Ash.
They will be green leaves in just days.

Does anyone remember Frick and Frack? After a pretty warm winter they are back to watching over the pond.
Don't you think they look like they're retired?

Pampas Grass. It's hard to believe but before the end of this growing season these plants will be over 6 feet tall. They will have seeds in the fall and the birds will ride their stalks like a teeter-todder.
Hope you enjoy your spring


Whoohoo!
