These spring days are simply glorious now, with cool refreshing nights. I think it’s nature’s way of making an apology for a tough winter. Hope you are basking in sunshine too Rita. 🙂

Dito! They were the last of the redbud tree blossoms and I love them so much I had to get a photo. Those tree blossoms are all totally faded now, making room for other glorious shows, but I will miss the redbuds until next spring.

Each photo has great character but that last one —whoo, boy! What a face that tree has! I like to think that ol’ tree is contorting his face and screaming at winter to go away for a long time. 😉

Color! This has been such a long bleak winter that the bursts of color are addictive. Thanks Tina.

You always get to the heart of where I am going Cindy. Does that make sense? I took the howling tree photo thinking it would be something like a sweet home for a little bird family. But when I looked again there was this contorted image as if the tree was really howling for the end of winter.
