Wish you a very fine Tuesday ....

I bought more blue and purple pansies for my yard. Spring is about a month early, the snow has melted but my flower beds are still frozen. Where I live, the only wild flowers that bloom in the woods are blue anemones.

 

Pansies are lovely and can withstand the night frosts that we still have. I love them especially the ones in blue-purple tones. Their sweet faces are adorable. My home, Finland.

The twinkling gaze of this white anemone is irresistible. I can't help but smile back.

The flower beds in my yard are coming to life. Heat and light are a miracle-working force, even for them.

Joy floods my heart every time I find the first blue anemones of the new spring. My forest, Finland.

The first delicate white anemones shyly rise from the cold ground to marvel at the new spring.

 

My forest is also filled with the sweet song of birds. The new spring has opened its doors wide open, I step inside to marvel too.

I can't help but think about the few men who lead our common world with their evil, causing completely unnecessary deaths and fears in the developing minds of children and young people.

 

However, we are all sisters and brothers to each other. In love. All equal.

There is lots of beauty in the shadows too, on a blue, blue day. My forest, Finland.

Pansies once again 💜 now in the warmth and gentle light of spring, who wouldn't glow? I'm glowing too. My yard, Finland.

The spring air, warming after the rain, wraps a little pansy in a soft blanket of mist. In my yard, Finland.

♥ Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments ♥

The Yoshino cherry tree is regarded as one of the most popular ornamental cherry trees in the world today. Known to be

among the earliest cherry trees to bloom, it has a delicate pendulous habit that graces the landscape with fragrant flowers with a sweet almond scent. The Yoshino cherry (also known as the Japanese flowering cherry) is the darling of the flowering tree world and the star of such renowned events as the National and International Cherry Blossom Festivals.

 

Thank you very much for your kind comments and visit, much appreciated!

My upload for a weekly challenge I'm doing with a group of Flickr friends. This week's theme is Spring.

 

By the end of winter, I'm totally over having washing strung up all over the house to dry. We've already had a few isolated spring-like days when it was just perfect drying weather. Bring it on !!

The last few days of winter are here and it's time to say goodbye. The winter wasn't quite what I had hoped for and expected in terms of the weather but there will always be another. Now I'm really excited about spring and the opportunities it will bring. So goodbye winter and welcome spring! :)

 

There is a bit of ice in the background in this shot for those who doubt that this in

fact is winter :)

🌼 Spring is making its grand entrance at Parco Talenti! 🌿☀️

 

Spent last week soaking up the sunshine and strolling through this dreamy field of daisies. Nature really knows how to put on a show, and I’m here for it! 🌸✨

 

Who else loves a good springtime park walk? 🌳💛

A few days late with my 'spring' photo, but since we haven't actually made it to summer (and there's still some snow left on the ground) I don't feel too badly about my tardiness.

 

Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.
