goodbye Spring

One last photo tribute to spring. I will head outdoors tomorrow to begin capturing the colors of Fall, my chosen season.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: SpRiNg

Spring is finally making an entrance here in CO. It is so wonderful that the birds are singing, trees are budding and flowers are erecting blooms. My neighbor is an avid gardner and has the most beautiful sanctuary in her backyard. So, I took a leisurely stroll through the garden gate and aimed my lens at all things “spring.” I simply adore this neighbor and her entire family and admire her love and knowledge of nature.

I hope you have some beautiful blooms somewhere in your yard that make you smile. Sometimes it is the little things. Happy Spring, my friends!

Longin’ for Spring

Posting these photos to remind myself that spring is on its way. Snow is melting on my front lawn as I write this post. I think the white, fluffy stuff is gorgeous, but I long for spring to get here.

Are flowers already blooming where you live? I have many bulbs that are resting under the snow that I am anxious to meet. Sometimes, it is the little things.

Daring Spring

Under the snow blossoms a daring spring. ~Terri Guillemets

I took this photo last spring at my parents’ home in SC. Do you have signs of the promise of spring in your yard?

HaPpY SpRiNg

So, today is the first day of SpRiNg!! That, along with cleaning out my flower beds yesterday, has my nerve endings pinging for warmer days. I thought today I would share some images with you that speak “spring.” Spring makes me anxious for blooming flowers, scurrying animals, hiking and camping, growing vegetables and herbs, fly fishing, watching nature, grilling out, living outdoors, etc. I hope you enjoy!

Hiking to new destinations

Planting sunflowers and watching wildlife

Just enjoying the outdoors

Spending time on the beach

Finding baby bunnies

Blooming flowers

Lush, green garden

Herbs to use when grilling out

Being outdoors and fly fishing

Hiking with the family

Outdoors

Have you started cleaning out your flower beds and making plans to bring them alive again? Do you plant a garden or grow herbs? Please share. All of these things just make me smile because sometimes, it is the little things.
