From the singing of the birds, to the blossoms on the trees, and the new blooms all around the garden...the joys of Spring. Make one glad to be alive to enjoy it all !!!

"Evening Serenader"
This beautiful little Blackbird comes every evening at dinner time and perches on our neighbours TV aerial and serenades us right throughout our meal.

This time A Yellow Fusia

"Billington" Plum Blossom

Camellia.
Unfortunately these have had a fair battering with the recent wind & rain, but are still quite beautiful.

Spring is such a beautiful time of the year and this is another lovely selection from you although the flowers work better than the bird and the TV aerial.
I love the Fusia with those sunshine petals, the Billington Plum Blossom is expertly captured and the Camellia is fantastic albeit a little weather weary. Great set Pauline, well done

Thanks Dave for your ever welcome comments. The flowers about the garden at the moment are just beautiful, and as for the bird, unfortunately we live on the wrong side of that aerial LOL. But hey, it is a joy to hear this little fellow singing and serenading through dinner.

Beautiful pictures Pauline, my garden is terrible confused and not sure what to do. With a week and a half of temps being in the mid thirties during the end of August and then a snap freeze for a day the plants don't know what to do. I wanted to take some pictures of peach flowers and thought now would be a good time to find them. The peach trees already have fruit, maybe next year.

Thanks so much Michele. The seasons are certainly fluctuating alarmingly. We thought we were REALLY into summer, and then had a series of frosts...just glad the vege seedlings hadn't poked their wee heads through yet.

Thankyou so much Franky for your kind comments. I have my Dad to thank, for he taught me as a child "No matter what you do in life, give of your best"....
