Hello everyone, Hope you enjoyed your weekend. It was a nice one here . I spent some time today taking lots of photos but before I show those to you I wanted to wrap up the last of the early spring colour. Last fall I planted lots of new tulips as they went on the end of season clearance so now I have been enjoying the fruits of my labor!
I love the different shades of pink and although most of the tulips are past here now there are still some of the late blooming varieties in bloom. After they are done blooming we snap of their heads to save their energy for the bulbs,hoping they will rebloom.It seems some varieties do better then others at reblooming-often the fancier ones are only good for a year or two before fading away.
In the early spring it is nice to have a good splash of colour.

I love seeing the yellow finches fluttering about the garden and I love to hear them sing as I work outdoors.
I often find it hard to get good bird shots as they seem to fly off while I am still trying to focus but these little finches were more cooperative for me.
I just noticed these pretty tulips in the garden yesterday as they are just coming into bloom. I love the splash of green in with the deep yellow.
Well, with the lilacs coming into full bloom I have been picking arm loads of them to enjoy as the season scoots by so quickly and I need to capture the moment before it is gone. I see the peonies are loaded with buds too - so lots to look forward too
