Sorry everyone for not being on Flickr much lately. It's been a very busy time at work, many staff on leave or sick. Now I'm on holidays, so looking forward to some R&R and time to go out photographing!! And yes, I'm slowly catching up with you all:)
Blanchard Springs is not the biggest spring in the Ozarks, but I think it's the prettiest. The waters from the spring flow through a vast system of caverns before they empty out through a cave and form a nice little waterfall.
Blanchard Springs is located within the Ozark National Forest, in the Ozark Mountains of northern Arkansas.
The appearance of the first crocus in the spring is always a surprise. It often comes just a few days after a snowstorm, or more likely, the day before a major storm. This year they've been spared the onslaught of damaging weather, and have been around long enough for the squirrels and birds to sample them, needing saffron for their recipes.
The beautiful early morning spring light created these great colours through the trees lining this Northamptonshire lane.
Portglenone Forest
On Friday afternoon I took a run out to Portglenone in search of some bluebells. Initially walking through I was very unsure as to whether or not I would find any or not, but decided I'd try and make the most of it in any case. I went on a path I wouldn't usually begin on and came upon this patch of bluebells and daisies mingled in together. The way the light was hitting it was a real thing of beauty and I spent ages looking at the intricate detail in these flowers as they danced in the spring wind and sunlight.
Great are the details that the Master puts into His creation - right down the minute details that we often do not see. This spring why not stop, look and give your soul a reason to praise His name for His marvellous works!!
Enjoy!!
This scene immediately caught my eye as I was about to enter the car park at Roma Street Parkland. On display are a wonderful selection of plants. A nice way to kickstart my day's outing.

Even the trees are putting on new growth. This is a hickory, I think. Even the chickadees and titmice seem a little perkier than usual. (The titmouse is opening a sunflower seed.)
