Looks like spring has definitely sprung. The white cat in the last pic looks like he is pretending to be a squirrel. Made me laugh.

Daisy climbing down the tree

Buster and Dorah — oh,

I adore reading your comments, thank you all, but only Kay L. write a poem! She's quite a lady!
ReplyDeleteLove your photos. I don't think I've ever seen a maroon trillium. They're usually white. Love Kay's poem! What fun!
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful spring flowers!!! I am going to have to check out the horse chestnuts, when I can walk that far...
