In kindergarten, I learned this song.
The air is warm and the sky is blue,
The leaves are green-yellow because they are new!
Your feet go skipping and birds all sing,
The whole world is happy because it is Spring.
Haven’t they proven you never forget what you learned in kindergarten? This year, Spring was late. It’s now mid-May and trees are just getting buds. These pictures were all taken yesterday. Aspens and willows leaf-out first. Blossoms are just now peaking. Our plum tree that gets a lot of sun had a few blossoms several weeks ago, but now our more-shaded tree is having her turn to shine.
Treed by our dogs, who wouldn't know what to do with a squirrel even if they caught it.
Plum blossoms
Teddy blossoms
More plum blossoms
Finally budding
