Search for Spring time


 Do you like strolling outdoors with your camera?
For me it is a meditation and time to breathe and a time to notice.
So yesterday I took my camera outdoors in search of spring.
Do you search for spring at this time of year?
Well I found it!!!!!!!!!!
I couldn't believe it!
There it was, right in my own backyard.
Daffodils poking through the grass.
Crocus wrapped in tissue paper thin beginnings
and shining through the dried leaves of autumn.
I know for many of you, these signs won't show up for quite awhile yet.
But I just had to share the hope of spring time to come.
In the meantime, just the search and a deep breath will give us peace.
Notice what you Notice!

  2. With this weather down south, one day cold the next warm, the poor plants don't know if to stay under ground or come up! I did see some daffodils trying to bloom the other day, but then we had frost!

  3. It's uplifting to see bulbs pushing through the earth. I'm never very successful with growing crocuses in the lawn. You must be pleased to see some pushing through. Today we had the first fall of snow although it didn't last long this time. I decided not to go out as with the change in the weather it's very cold. Perhaps tomorrow?

  4. I had a few of those poking up in early January. Not anymore. I fear their growth may be stunted by our cold and rain. I hope not...but you never know.

  7. My daffodils were coming up last week too, but now it's turned freezing here. Not sure if they'll be confused or if they'll go to sleep and come back out at the proper time!

  8. I have some of those little green pointy things shooting up too - bit too soon really! Hope they survive the chill.

    Hugs - Mary
