Springtime on river Mrežnica, Belavići, Croatia

First Wild blossom of spring.

How wonderfully these pictures have caught the look of tentative spring—spring waiting for a single day to burst into living green.

There's nothing quite like the show of lilacs in the spring. They are not only pretty, but they smell heavenly. I just love these flowers! HSS!

Beautiful petals

And color scheme.

Among the loveliest

Ever seen.

Such is the flower

Of one’s dreams

The iris

Is a floral queen.

(Second verse)

Such grace in this iris...originally against a white background, why did I do that?!

Enjoy the week FLICKR friends, thanks for stopping by...Pat...xo

Spring is around the corner and the mating season is in full swing here in Florida with the snowy egrets in their plumage and will continue through May.

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Dillos &Parrots &Dragons, Oh My!!!

The trees are all in full leaf, poppies are everywhere and the vines are beginning to show themselves. It truly gladdens the heart, especially after what seemed to be a long and cold winter (someone said it was the coldest winter here for ten years).

Enjoy your day my Flickr friends 😊

Please NO MULTIPLE INVITES or GLITTERY graphics!!!

It's the time for bluebells but I'm unlikely to get out to see them this year so here's one from the archives

We visited St Raphael on the Riviera yesterday for a very long lunch with old friends of my partner. On the way and not too far from where we live we drove through a huge field crammed full of poppies. We went back there this morning so I could take a few snaps. This is one of them. The land was flat and it was difficult to capture the full majesty of the acres of red poppies. Perhaps they're better just viewed from the confines of a passing car and left at that?!
