Another sure sign of spring in the Willamette Valley of Oregon is the spring lambs in the fields. They are fun to watch as they romp around and play with each other. They are very cute too.
A tradition for me is photographing the Snowdrops and these beauties, the Spring Crocus.

It is always a miracle how quickly the nature changes every spring to to delicate spring greenness. From today's walk along the shore path.

In fact two different poppies, I think, on the riverside walk opposite Victoria Park. From nothing just a couple of weeks back, these giant Poppies grow to at least three feet, and are a curious mixture of strength, in the new flower buds, and fragility in the papery petals.
We found a trail from the opposite side of our normal parking lot. This trail is longer and has varied wilderness.
Really liked how the setting sun lit the new buds and how the water was utterly still.
Several photos will come from this wood.
Hope you are healthy and safe.

EASTERN SKUNK CABBAGE (SYMPLOCARPUS FORTIDUS)
This is usually the first native flower to bloom in the spring. Enclosed in a red-green mottled spathe, the green colored spadix is covered in tiny yellow flowers. There are also distinct populations of Skunk Cabbage with spathes in solid red and bright yellow green. The bloom has a rotting flesh smell which attracts a variety of insects for pollination.

Three yellow spring flowers today, which are brightening up the garden. That's much needed as yesterday was thoroughly wet and dismal, with March the wettest for about 40 years. A few years ago I had several clumps of Primroses, but this seems to be the only survivor.
I took that in our garden. It's always nice to see springs first messenger :-) What du you think? Does those beheadded flowers work? Personally I find that shallow depth of field kind of interesting.
Please feel free to give me some critique and feedback: Describe the image in terms of your general feeling or impression. Tell me what you like or dislike about the photograph, and why. That could help me a big deal doing better in the future. THANKS!
Nature's free bounty and useless extravagance had never appeared so fantastically beautiful as it did this spring. I had an uncomfortable suspicion that Nature had come to reconquer the earth for herself.”

Japanese White-eye hanging down from a branch of Sakura cherry at Taito-ku, Tokyo, Japan.
This photo was one of the runners-up in the competition "Nature's Best Photography Japan 2013".
Two more Aquilegia photos. They're also known as Granny's bonnet and Columbine (which I somehow thought was a quite different plant). With its head lifted up, this pale pink one could almost be a child's spinning windmill.
