Color in the house...in the garden...but not yet at the pond

From a bouquet on sale for $5. at the grocery store that I brought home Thursday



In the garden this morning, daffodils that were planted last fall



The first blooms from my bleeding heart



And one of a pair of geese this morning that have been hanging out at the pond behind my house (B&W)

They are beautiful and a welcome sight this cold morning. They feed the soul.

The reflection makes it feel you've got the photo upside down & then you see the goose.

Geese? We have tons here and they are nasty birds. But they do photograph nicely.

It's so drab in my neighborhood right now. Bleak, actually. It's blowing snow today, I'm just glad all our warm temps the past few weeks hasn't brought up my bulbs.

Some of the trees are starting to show signs of budding.

I brought in my potted petunias last fall and all of them bloomed over the winter, twice at least! I'm down to two but the burgundy/magenta petunia has given me two blooms this past week. But it's not enough, I like lots of flowers around, can't wait for spring!

Thanks for the color!
