Springtime has arrived earlier this year! The cherry blossoms in High park are almost two weeks earlier than last year.
One evening, during our Disneyland Paris Magical Moments Events Tour, we were treated to a very magical evening at Parc Disneyland that included "Springtime for Mickey" in Central Plaza, "Disney's Dine Under the African Stars" at Hakuna Matata Restaurant in Adventureland and a very special Magical Moments meet-and-greet on Main Street USA. It was such a magical evening that I actually wept afterward.
No, this not a recent Springtime photo. It is taken in the end of April 2006. But I SOOO much long for the Springtime awakenings in our garden!! This is a front-garden aspect, where the golden Kerrias and the flaming red Tulips are the ....master painters of this composition...The first redish tender glowing foliage on the Roses is very well seen , like a golden Daffodil...
But , yesterday, while I was again strolling around in the back garden , I discovered that my three young Hamamelis (Witch Hazels ) are in bloom! First sign of early Spring! And all the bulbous plants have well started growing up, preraring themselves to display their colourful treasures!!! Another, strong sign of the ...Springrime awakenings of 2008!!! Lovely, non??
Now, out I am dashing into the garden, because my plant-babies NEED my support!!! See you tonight!

Pierre-Auguste Cot, French
b. 1837, Bédarieux; d. 1883, Paris
This flirtatious duo in classicizing dress, painted with notable technical finesse, reflects Cot’s allegiance to the academic style of his teachers, including Bouguereau and Cabanel. Exhibited at the Salon of 1873, the picture was Cot’s greatest success, widely admired and copied in engravings, fans, porcelains, and tapestries. Its first owner, hardware tycoon John Wolfe, awarded the work a prime spot in his Manhattan mansion, where visitors delighted in "this reveling pair of children, drunken with first love ... this Arcadian idyll, peppered with French spice." Wolfe’s cousin, Catharine Lorillard Wolfe, later commissioned a similar scene from Cot, The Storm, now also in the Metropolitan’s collection.

I was hoping to see another Cobra Clubtail today but was pleased to find this Springtime Darner almost as soon as I stepped into the woods. Thanks to PhotoFreak for the ID help. At first I thought this was a Swamp Darner but their thorax markings are blue. giffbeaton.com/darners.htm

The John Day area, is gorgeous year round, but the Cant ranch made for a beautiful spot on a stormy afternoon, in March 2007.
Early in Spring, the many ricefields around Novara are being filled with water before the sowing season. Water comes from the extensive and intricate web of small and large canals build through the centuries and still in use today (That black dog with the arched tail is my old Iole - You know her well by now).
