Anticipation

I read somewhere that in order to have good mental health,we should always have something to look forward to.It may be something big,like a dream vacation,or it could be something small,something that to many people would be  insignificant.
I trust that I am not the only person looking forward to spring,that's not to say that I don't enjoy each day and try to find joy in each day.
As we look forward to spring,join me in looking back to spring and summer of 2015.


The Kaleida Marsh usually yields something of interest.The calm water is only slightly disturbed when a Canada Goose takes off or lands.


The Lesser Scaup have arrived and are enjoying the open water.


At St.Vital Park,Winnipeg,the male Wood Duck shows off his splendid plumage. This is a beautiful duck and one that I enjoy seeing and photographing.


Back on my yard there are birds of all sorts.I think this is a Ruby-crowned Kinglet,but I am open to correction.Whatever the name,he is a little cutie.


Of course in spring the yard is alive with the twittering of the Dark-eyed Juncos.These birds may not be brightly coloured,but their cheerful twitter always brightens my day.


Closing Thought:
Spring shows what God can do with a drab and dirty world. ~Virgil A. Kraft
