Looking Forward to Spring

Another month has come and gone.For many this time of year means warm weather and new growth.In some years that is what we experience in Manitoba as well, but spring seems to be on a bit of hold for us this year.One thing is certain, it will come and with it the warmer weather and the new growth.Until that happens,I have chosen a few pictures from last year to share in this post.

I am so thankful that I have an abundance of pictures to fall back on during slow photo times.

Before long we can expect to see these little butterflies out and about, soaking up any warm rays of the sun that they find.

 Sometimes when nature shows a lack of color,buying a small bouquet of colourful flowers helps to brighten the days.I did that last spring and enjoyed capturing their beauty in various settings.

At this very moment, most,if not all of our small ponds are still frozen over,but it won't we long and we will once again enjoy the reflections in any small body of water.

When the warmer days arrive,I will be ready to sit outside and capture more images of my little feathered friends, like this Dark-eyed Junco,from last year.

So far,I have not seen or hear a Western Meadowlark around here but they, too,will be arriving very soon.I love to hear that bright song, belted out from a nearby post.

This is a picture from last year, but this is more of what it looks like around here right now.It is still pretty, but I do have to wonder how the geese feel about it.

Not all is dull and lifeless around here, even now.At sunset time, the sky lights up and displays the most beautiful colors.

Wishing you all a Blessed Easter.

Closing Thought:

If God had a refrigerator your picture would be on it.If He had a wallet your picture would be in it.He sends flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning.Face it, friend He is crazy about you.
