Signs of Spring

Spring is arriving here in New England. One of my favorite times of the year here. New leaves, the smell of grass in the air, and the first bright blossoms begin to bloom!

A crocus pushes through the dried grass, and Autumn's crunchy leaves.

And then explodes to show us the bright yellow hiding inside.

Daffodils shine like sunshine. Even on a cloudy day.

Pink tulips opening their petals to let in the sun.

And try to entice bumblebees!

Rhodedendron bushes after a rain. Each little cluster of flowers was about the size of a half dollar.

And all around are tiny signs of life stirring. I found these little guys in front of my bank! One of the reasons I take my camera wherever I go, is because I enjoy finding something interesting to take a photo of! You never know when you'll see deer on the side of the road, or pretty flowers growing in front of your bank.

A weeping cherry tree is covered in pretty white flowers.

And a Weeping Willow starts to sprout leaves. I hope that I have encouraged you to find some signs of Spring in your own neighborhoods! As always, capture every moment. Find beauty where others may not. And always bring your camera!
