Finally

It finally felt like Spring, today. That’s about a month later than usual. I was finally able to get outside without a jacket. We were finally able to purchase some annual plants and not fear they’d get too cold. Today, it’s going to reach 80 degrees, finally.

The first Water Lily bloom of the season rose above the surface in my patio pond.

The rose-tree near our front patio is in bloom.

Trees in our little orchard are promising fruits come late summer.

Red clover is blooming in the pastures.

The Dickcissels are singing at the top of every tree and fence post.

Wild flowers are blooming, and insects are visiting them.

Baby Robins have gone from brilliant blue eggs to hefty chicks in mere weeks.

The climbing rose bush on my back patio burst into bloom, this week, too! Finally.

Spring…finally.
