~~ Sweet Signs of Spring ~~

Hello dear ones,

Our days are turning so gorgeous lately.  Everything has started to grow and bloom so beautifully.  The birds are back . . . Tree Swallows, Barn Swallows and Hummingbirds. The Robins are living us now, we just have a few left, pretty soon they will be up north.  Here are photos of our sweet spring.  Enjoy!
                     

"Can words describe the fragrance of the very breath of spring?"

"The robin flew from his swinging spray of ivy on to the top of the wall and he opened his beak and sang a loud, lovely trill, merely to show off.  Nothing in the world is quite as adorably lovely as a robin when he shows off - and they are nearly always doing it."
~ Frances Hodgson, The Secret Garden




~ Camellias floating ~


Our Camellia bush has two colors.  

I love bunnies!




"April has put a spirit of youth in everything."
~ William Shakespeare



"I glanced out the window at the signs of spring.  The sky was almost blue, the trees were almost budding, the sun was almost bright."
~ Millard Kaufman 



"She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbor:
"Winter is dead."
~ A.A. Milne


Our newest flower bed.  We are going to be very busy planting seeds this coming week.  And my dear husband has a new addition to the back yard, which our kids and myself are not to crazy about it.  Can you guess what is it?

Our front door wreath has guest living in.  I love the way they built their little nest.  I love birds and everything related to it.  I'm so glad that my husband is a bird carver.  His latest creations are two Tree Swallows.  Here is a photo of them.  So cute!


Ok, now back to the wreath and its guests.  I think they did such a marvelous job building that little nest.  Don't you think?

Last year some birds also built a nest behind one of our wreath, you can see it Here.


Here's a closed up to this year nest . . . and look at those lovely blue eggs! 

I think it belong to this kind of bird.

So beautiful and perfectly made!
  They use lot of greens to make it. 
Love it!


May your nest be filled with His abundant blessings this Spring season and always!
With Love,
