cherry blossom spring






Today is March 19th . The weather is fine warm and sunny.
I went into the water garden and discovered the flowering cherry trees in full bloom.
Notice how much bigger the lupin have gotten.
The song birds are every where they flit and fly from bush to tree.
The currant are in bloom they put off a distinguished odor.
The pond is also coming top life. The monkey flower near the mouth of the stream are just starting to bloom.
I can hear the sounds of some brave pacific tree frogs.
They will soon start croaking.
