Signs of spring

It was really a beautiful day today, with lots of sunshine. In the morning, a rather chill east wind was blowing, but it has ceased. I missed some hours of sunshine because I fell asleep in the afternoon, a thing prone to happen to me on weekends. However I enjoyed much of it.

A little bird on the feeder.

These pods on the contorted filbert have opened up. I guess that's how the contorted filbert seeks to reproduce.

If you click on the above picture to enlarge it, you'll see lots of small, tender green leaves. Really the first leaves of spring for me. Use the back button on your browser to come back.



And here's a clip of birds flittering around the feeder and bird bath.
