The view from my window…

 

Spring has sprung!

Tiny daffodils (or jonquils, as my Mother called them) have been blooming along the east Texas roadside for several weeks now!  They are just beautiful.  I found these in a Wal-mart cart ready to be thrown out, so I rescued them.  I will plant them in the ground once they finish blooming.

This looks like a fall picture, doesn’t it?  Took this just a few days ago…it is a maple tree in full bloom, with lots of red samaras hanging off of it.  (Samara is the name for the winged seeds of a maple tree.)  It’s been fascinating to see maples in shades from gold to orange to red out in the woods.  We had good rains this winter, and I think that’s why they are showing more color than we ever saw before.

What’s blooming in your world?
