Flowering Trees in Bloom…
17 May
On my walkabouts the last couple of days I was able to finally take some pictures of flowers. The sun hasn’t been out and the pictures are kind of gray but it least it is a glimpse of colour. The pictures don’t do the colours justice. The bright green of the new leaves coming out just isn’t captured. There is a picture of the green maple leaves that are just so bright it drew my eye. I noticed the Crab-apple blooms are ready to pop and there should lots of pink out there next week. With everything moving around here I found another bunch of Magnolias with bright pink buds. Our trees are beginning pile up in various parts of the yard and we should start moving them next week. Right now it is dig, dig, dig. I noticed some of our Japanese maples took a beating this winter as well as some of our yews but I know we aren’t the only ones. The baby robins are doing well – I took a picture but stood far away ad zoomed in but you can’t really see them. I also put a picture in about 10′ – 12′ white Cedars, we are getting a lot of calls regarding privacy issues, so I thought I throw in a picture.
