I am so late coming in to Flickr tonight (a busy day) so I won't be able to add comments tonight. I am adding another flower from my neighbour's garden that I took yesterday and I will catch up with everyone in the morning.

Not sure what this plant is, but each spring it is covered in vibrant colour, as is there bush in the background.

Cette année, le printemps est un véritable festival de beauté! La floraison est abondante et la pluie est aux abonnés absents depuis un certain temps déjà. Nous avons donc tout loisir d'admirer le spectacle et d'en profiter...du pur délice pour les yeux !!

 

Sur la photo: fleurs de cerisier d'ornement (à l'avant) et pommier en fleurs (bokeh d'arrière-plan) 🌸🌳

Spring is in the air somewhere, but not here, they're calling for more snow this weekend... so sad!!! Another thing is that my computer problems have kept me away from uploading my photos & commenting on your photos! I'm doing my best to catch-up, please be patient with me my friends, thanks =)

Dear Friends, I wish you a good start into the new week

A Common Crow butterfly on a white Pentas in my neighbour's garden.

A little faux Polaroid fun for this fine rainy Monday..

 

I took these photos a couple of days ago whilst walking around the neighbourhood. Lately it has been warmer outside than it is inside during the day (hubby doesn't like the heater on during the day LOL) so I have been taking lots of walks with my camera. We have hit the first hurdle with the kitchen, thanks to the plumber who didn't arrive this morning. He is coming tomorrow and the kitchen won't be put in until Thursday. All the cupboards and stove etc are now out and the my small kitchen looks huge without anything in it.

At least it is here in Vancouver... Hello sun and warmer weather! I've seen snowdrops and crocuses popping up in gardens, which is always a sure sign of spring.

 

I bought four bunches of tulips yesterday and they inspired me to shoot this.

hang in there

it's almost here.

It is a miserable, cold day here in Sydney so I decided I would add something to cheer me up. I took these photos yesterday (how can the weather be so changeable LOL). I managed to get some shots of the Hover Fly zooming in and then land on one petal of this pretty Grevillea. Yesterday I showed you some of my daughter's paintings - you can see that she is a very talented photographer as well:

20160419_Noodles_SpringIsInTheAir

I spotted this lovely little bird whilst walking around Mount Tomah Botanical Garden a few weeks back. I only had my 180 mm lens on the camera and by the time I put on the 100-400 lens on, it had flown away.

Somebody decided to have a little fun at Gallup Park last weekend. They were a little early for April Fool's Day or late for Halloween.

 

"Les plantes et les animaux tout autour de nous s'éveillaient d'un long sommeil, et notre jardin s'est lentement transformé en un tapis de vert tendre, et les cieux au-dessus de notre maison se sont à nouveau remplis de chœurs de chants d'oiseaux."

 

***

"The plants and animals all around us were waking from a long sleep, and our yard was slowly transformed into a carpet of soft green, and the skies above our house were filled with choruses of birdsong once again.”

Cit. by Arlene Stafford-Wilson

A mouse strolling unwary and within range of the hunter of all hunters in this street.....

EXPLORE April 30, 2010.......Several weeks ago I was near Port Huron in Fort Gratiot, Michigan, speaking at a conference and saw this fabulous sunrise on Lake Huron....I jumped out of bed, out came my camera and down the stairs i went...right into that 32 degree weather...not even that kind of weather can keep, even this Florida girl, away from capturing this moment! What a beauty to wake up to! I must admit I was stunned with what my eyes were seeing! What a way to start the day!

Are Angel Kittens who have lost their way,

And every Bulrush on the river bank

A Cat-Tail from some lovely Cat astray.”

Delving through my archives again - this is another variety of Grevillea that grows in my neighbour's garden.

 

The weather is finally beginning to cool down here - supposed to get down to 9C tonight, but quite windy, so seems even colder. It will soon be time to put the heaters on.

I captured this fiery sunset last night from our log home on Bluebird Estates, Alberta, Canada.

 

Happy May Day and thanks for visiting.

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,

and I say it's all right

 

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter

Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

and I say it's all right

 

The Beatles, of course.

 

So, the sun came out today and it got up to almost 40 degrees. I had to go for a walk. Yes, that is a genuine smile. More to come from this shoot, I'm just too tired to put them up right now.

This photo is of a larvae of a black and yellow ladybird (Fungus-eating Ladybird (Illeis galbula)) that lives on our squash leaves which I spotted on an African Daisy in my garden. I have seen many adult, but not many larvae.

Sweet Crocus I have waited for you and your gift of Saffron.
