I had the chance to meet up with my old horticultural pal Montague Bergamot as he was doing his daily inspection of the herbaceous borders. So here are a few spring snippets.
For the clinically bored, here's the index.
Clockwise from top left:
Restio tetraphyllum, a really beautiful rush-like plant.
Cornus mas, or Cornelian cherry.
Arum italicum 'Maculatum'.
Euphorbia griffithii Fireglow, its sprouting stems look like posh asparagus, which is a bit of an oxymoron, but don't risk eating it, trust me!
I wonder where this thread will lead........
Robert Frost (1915)
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.
And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.
For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfil.
This beautiful barn can be found at Seed Savers Exchange in Decorah, IA.
Used partially to house animals for show like a petting zoo, Its upper floor has a large hall for meetings, schooling or weddings.
The white cupola is partially hidden by the branches - old but well kept.

I am back. I know what I have been saying about not taking that many shots but the actual month and a half break was not actually in the plan. I have devised my list of shots and many of them that I want feel that spring would be the right time of year.
This though, actually is not one of the places but I had previously had this circled out but it never materialised as I often come out to this area on a dull day or have to run for the bus home. Having though been standing here roughly 30 minutes it nearly did not happen again as it was rather challenging through cars, fast buses and the fact that I had not taken in ages.
So, here is the 20th bus in the original fleet of the future buses Lothian buses 458 seen here at Dobbies Garden Centre at the Edinburgh river Esk crossover point as Midlothian arrives on a service 29 to Silverknowes.

Taken near Brockenhurst, New Forest a few weeks ago.
Many thanks for all the kind comments and faves :))))
Grand Prismatic Spring, located in Midway Geyser Basin, is the park’s largest hot spring. It is approximately 370 feet (112.8 m) in diameter and is over 121 feet (37 m) deep.
This geothermal spring is so large that I could not capture the whole feature from the walkway, even with stitched images. The photos of the entire Grand Prismatic Spring are taken from a vantage point that we managed to miss :-(((.
I do like the up close views, which provide much more detail of the deposits below the surface of the water. I will post more in the coming days.
Hope you are enjoying a lovely October weekend! Thanks for stopping by and for all of your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

In these days of physical distancing all my photos are taken on my own property. A long lens really comes in handy.
A little lady sparrow in my front bushes. The pink in the background is caused from a neighbours barbary bushes in the distance.
The daffodils are blooming everywhere you look out here! Feels a bit more like Winter this morning, but it's definitely Spring.

At last spring arrived. After a long and dark winter it's always such a relief to be surrounded by colours and light again. I just love to sniff the freshness of nature and enjoy to watch the busy birds and the colorful flowers in bloom...
I'm wishing you the best spring ever!
Happy First Day of Spring!
I'm hoping that what little piles of snow we have are the last that I'll see until November, I'm ready for nice weather and sunshine! I went for a walk this afternoon in the forest and it felt great to be back in the trees and grass, a bit different than the palm trees and concrete of Vegas ;)
I've always liked this image from the tv special "100 Mile Challenge", a show about choosing local food and it inspired this image for today.
