Spring Collection

Here's an assortment of photos, mostly taken during the colorful month of May.

This first photo is a cell phone "portrait mode" shot. This mode often works as well for flowers as for people!




These next two photos are of the arrangement Deb made that I mentioned in my prior post.

Attack from the Space Pods



An earlier post, "Spring Happenings Continued", shows this same robin's nest with four eggs. Alas, three had since disappeared, leaving this solo egg. Sad to say, this egg didn't make it either. Evidently, it is sometimes a tough task for birds' eggs to survive "in the wild."

One Egg Left




Phlox Carpet




Birdhouse



This is a special lilac with very tiny blooms. This entire photo is about one inch of blossoms wide!

Predominantly Pink Peony



Here's an echinacea center with the colorful blooms not yet developed. You'll be able to see the brilliant red bloom in a later post.

In the Green

Here's a subset of spring flora with a predominant green (or "greenish") color.  Plus one bird, "in the green."

These first two photos were taken after overnight rain.

Drops on Tops






This is an arrangement Deb made. The top part didn't have enough green to qualify for this post's theme:)
No worries, though... I plan to show that in another post.

What Lurks Beneath


This mourning dove parent sits atop his/her nest just above me on our pergola. It was nice she/he didn't fly away.
