A few weeks ago we were still getting snow, even as trees were starting to bud. I'm happy to say that this tree, at least, seems to be undamaged and the buds are coming along.



Some bushes nearby are also finally starting to take a chance on our up and down temperatures.



In the meantime, the ducks have taken advantage of personal ponds appearing with all the rain from last month.



And I'm pretty sure there are a few nests in progress. This drake seems to be worn out from patrolling the area.

Snow and trees together is a very nice picture.

Yes, it does look nice, though it worried me on the day given that we've had an enormous amount of tree die-off in the last 5 years due to overly early blooms.

I just love seeing ducks. Seeing the trees bud at last is such a hopeful and happy sign of spring.

It is, and while we're still getting such low overnights that we've been bringing in plants on various nights, overall, the temperatures are up.

Really pretty photos. You're a good photographer.

Oh thank you! Well it helps a lot when one spots something interesting to photograph ;)
