Jonquils
Here's where I'm hangin' this spring. Finally, most of the yard and garden birdhouses are cleaned and back up waiting for spring occupancy. Well, there is one sitting on the wood stove that needs an artist's 'touch'. Other then that though, we're ready to go. When I was up rototilling a week or so ago, there was already some 'action' in a few of the garden houses. Jonquils, for me, are such a hopeful flower of early spring. They lined the driveway on Washington Avenue, and before I went to the bus stop each kindergarten morning, I made sure to check them out. I was startled! Such perfection rises from dirt?

ReplyDeletesaid beautifully, birdman...and could be said of all creation, yes?
ReplyDeleteA quaint little house waiting for new neighbors, and how thoughful to plant some welcoming bouquets!
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful, Birdman. In southern New England, the jonquils and other daffodils are past and we have almost finished the run of tulips, too. On to peonies!
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous spring scene! And, what a lovely place for a feathered family.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty shot!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful, artsy photo with the spring flowers and a background birdhouse!
ReplyDeleteBravo, Birdman!
I even like the word "jonquil." What a lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteSuch perfection. I love getting to relive early spring through your lens!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful image, perfectly composed as usual.
ReplyDeleteChirp. That's all I can say tonight.
ReplyDeletePerfect capture of spring.
ReplyDeleteLovely shot of spring! Now that you have finished your garden, you can come help me with mine. :)) (If only it would stop raining here.)
ReplyDeleteBirdman -- Like your composition! Your words were delightful. I used to walk past my neighbors on the way to school and pick lilacs off their huge bush -- giving them to my teacher when I arrived.
ReplyDeleteWow...that is a cute birdhouse!
ReplyDeleteEvery living thing does, including us. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and I suppose you could add dirt to dirt. Organic chemistry is full of magic.
ReplyDeleteAin't nature grand!! It never fails after a long,cold Winter to surprise us with it's treasures. Fab photo.
ReplyDeleteI mean this in the nicest way--this would make a fantastic jigsaw puzzle. Wow! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a name! Love the shot with the birdhouse in the back. Looks like a lovely spring day!
