Spring Time yes it is Spring, like this spring the weather go's back and forth or up and down! Shot in North Carolina.
fortunately nature has not been stopped by the Coronavirus and continues to surprise us with its wonderful explosion of colors
My first siting of spring crocus (Pulsatilla patens ssp. multifida) this year, this might be the earliest I've seen them emerge.
Temperature this morning was 17°F (-8°C). The furry hairs on the plant and flowers gives the plant means to gather and store warmth from the sun, enabling their survival.
It's entirely possible these flowers will be covered with snow once or twice again this spring.
There's nothing like a bluebell wood in spring, very popular I know photographically but I can never resist! Very late this year and not as full as other years perhaps but still quite a spectacle with new life growing all around - I like the ferns growing across the woodland floor in particular contrasting well with the blue.
It really doesn't feel like spring here in the upper midwest as cool temps and,yes,snow chances are in the forecast. Weather whiplash is now the norm here with spring planting around a short month away now....
Things will eventually change and scenery like this, from Winslow,Illinois's Artesian Spring Park,will become the new norm....
How can you not get the blues with this rainy spring? 😉 Have a HBW anyway
forget-me-not (Myosotis / Vergißmeinnicht), seen on a walk in the forest
Myosotis (/ˌmaɪ.əˈsoʊtɪs/ MY-ə-SOH-tiss) is a genus of flowering plants in the family Boraginaceae. The name comes from the Ancient Greek μυοσωτίς "mouse's ear", which the foliage is thought to resemble. In the northern hemisphere they are colloquially denominated forget-me-nots or scorpion grasses. The colloquial name "forget-me-not" was calqued from the German Vergissmeinnicht and first used in English in AD 1398 through King Henry IV of England. Similar names and variations are found in many languages. Myosotis alpestris is the official flower of Alaska and Dalsland, Sweden. Plants of the genus are commonly confused with Chatham Islands' forget-me-nots which belong to the related genus Myosotidium (Wikipedia)

First trip of the year to the Kauffman Gardens. The Tulips are probably a few days away from being at peak splendor but I came away with a few new compositions. The squirrel came into frame at just the right moment on this one. I'm saving one for Easter as I had a very spiritual moment tonight. Stay tuned.
