One of the very rare sunny days this spring, just on a walk at my nearest small city. Spring is really great when the weather fits, today morning, it has snowed. Hey, we now have nearly May, and snow ?
Is that the global warming ? I didn´t hear some reports actually at tv or radio but if there is a day that is over the average, they put out their propaganda mace ! :-)
Spotted these sheep sheltering from a brisk Springtime wind on a snowy day.

La pianta del pero riesce a dare raccolti generosi e di buonissima qualità per decine di anni. Se le condizioni sono adatte questa pianta è in grado di vivere anche un secolo.
Il pero è caratterizzato da una chioma di tipo conico; la corteccia è di colore grigiastro ed e soggetta a frequenti fessurazioni. La grana del legno è fine e dal colore bianco rosato; per queste caratteristiche è particolarmente apprezzato in ebanisteria.
Le foglie hanno una colorazione verde brillante, sono di forma ovale e glabre. La fioritura, caratterizzata da numerosi fiori bianchi avvolti in un mazzetto di foglie, avviene in prevalenza alle estremità dei rami. I fiori sbocciano a fine marzo e la fioritura riesce a durare fino a venti giorni. Purtroppo questo è un limite per la coltivazione, infatti un periodo così prolungato può esporre la pianta a gelate e brinate, se coltivata in zone fredde.

It seems like this beauty brought Spring with her. Since she has been here the days have been brighter.. inside and outside :)
Fossil Springs begin approximately three quarters of a mile above the old Fossil Creek Dam. A series of springs gush 20,000 gallons a minute year-round at the bottom of a 1,600 foot deep canyon, creating a lush riparian oasis rich with life, and feeding Fossil Creek Wild and Scenic River. Over the years these calcium laden waters have laid down huge deposits of a type of limestone called travertine, creating deep pools for miles along the creek. The Wilderness and surrounding area are on the Tonto and Coconino National Forests, and are managed by the Coconino National Forest.
During the spring-summer season, camping is prohibited in Fossil Springs Wilderness and the surrounding area, and a reserved parking permit is required to park at the trailheads that access the Wilderness. See Fossil Springs Wilderness and Fossil Creek on the USFS Coconino National Forest website for maps, regulations, permit reservations, and other details.
