The long awaited season of spring has finally arrived.The temperatures are warming up and my yard is filled with birds.
Early in spring the Goldfinches begin to change into their summer coats.For a spell they look like this,not fully changed to the brighter color and a little mottled.
The Dark-eyed Juncos arrive in droves.These birds are not brightly coloured,but they fill the air with their cheerful twittering.
Purple Finches come back into this area.The brightly coloured male is a joy to see at the feeder. Before long this one will be joined by more makes and shortly after that the duller coloured females arrive as well.
I came home one day as the sun was getting ready to set and noticed the lichen on the Maple tree.The trunk was wet with sap and the late day sun cast a beautiful light on this.
Of course,I had to get in for a closer look.The intricate detail of the lichen is so pretty.
Closing Thought:
God bless you and utterly satisfy your heart with Himself.
