Poplar flower
Box Elder Flower
Blood root, showing its opinion of the season
This one really was a challenge. Not so much that there isn't a whole lot in bloom here in the frozen north, but the weather was lousy almost all week, rain, snow, sleet, bah humbug. However, we did find a few things.
For more Sunday Stills....
Great shots! I've love to see that Poplar bud after it opens. :)
ReplyDeleteExcellent shots, love the first one best..:-)
ReplyDeleteI love the daffy's.......you're way ahead of us here.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! I love, love, love them! I love your unique perspective, especially on the first photo. Great job.
ReplyDeleteWell, these pixes were well worth the effort of slogging through the blechy weather.
ReplyDeleteI love your sense of the bloodroot's 'attitude'l
Happy Easter, very pretty pictures, love the bloodroot!

ReplyDeletebox elder, is it the same as elder berries which the New Zealanders make a beer from?

The poplar flower is really interesting. Love the daffodils, they always make me smile.
ReplyDeleteDibear, thanks, maybe I will hike back up there and check it out...you have me wondering now. lol
ReplyDeleteEd, thanks, it was so nasty all week it took a while
Linda, kind of nice to hear that rather than be saying it to all those lucky folks to the south of us. lol
Michelle, thank you very much!
Cathy, thanks! Poor little thing was all curled up alone in the grass in the heifer pasture, looking like it was shivering
Lisa, Happy Easter and thank you!
Achieve, thanks and Happy Easter to you too!

Ann, no, we have those too, but box elder is a minor member of the maple family
Laughing Orca, thank you!
Shirley, thanks, same here. They are so welcome after the long winter
That first photo took my breath away but I have to say the Poplar and the Blood Root were my favorites. Really nicely composed shots...thank you for sharing. PS I'm with dibear - I'd like to see a few of those when they open too! Pretty please...
