I love this time of year just for noticing all the buds and first leaves.
What caught my eye, Time, are those bright red tulips. Wow!! Your compositions are STUNNING!! I love the contrast between the black and red. Awesome! xo
Those are lovely images, especially those tulips on the black background.
I counted 9 open blossoms this afternoon in your Mom’s daffodil patch. When we hit a quorum, I’ll take a photo. A variably cloudy but dry day up here until 4:30 when a rain and sleet squall came through again. I did get in a walk before that.
First and last shots are killer beauties.
Look at all those buds on Marina’s Incognito Pear tree.
My tree looks like it’s conducting the other trees. Sigh!!!!! xo
Hahaha! Of all the degrees, it wood have a Barkalaureate! Woodn’t it?
She also took Evelyn Wood’s speed reading.
Lol! xox
We got tired of waiting for the cold to lift in the midwest and now enjoying much warmer temps here in the south – seeing lots of flowers popping around us now.
Off Center & Not Even 
I love the red flowers! (Winter is hanging on for dear life here, too.)
Temps are up and down It’s been well below freezing in the mornings. Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Those red flowers absolutely pop!
Here we got an afternoon surprise of snow. Big flakes, small flakes, blowing… For hours.
As I ku’d. Winter persists. Thanks, Dale.
That it does!
Lovely.
Thanks, Cindy.
Wow! What a beautiful post ❤️
Thanks, Bridgette.
Magnificent.
Thanks, Shey.
Tulips are such a hopeful sign of Spring.
My Incognito Tree patiently waits…
You tree is starting to leaf out. No blooming blooms yet. Thanks, Marina.

Sorry TIM!! LOL
No problem. I’ve been called worse. Typos don’t count.
Thanks, Amy Rose.
We are in the same situation….cold persists! However, I am sure it will be too warm for us soon:).
It’s snowing this morning. Thanks, Janet.
No snow…just cold and grey:)
Still in the 30s here at night, been that way for three months now! We will probably swing from winter to summer overnight, though.
That often happens here too. Thanks, Dawn.
I love the clouds in the middle image and vibrancy of the red flower (tulip?).
Thanks, Brad.

That’s the way to do it. Thanks, Brian.
The red flower against the dark background is fabulous. It would be a great picture to draw.
Thanks, Roberta.
Very nice Tim. The calendar says it’s Spring, but the weather doesn’t concur at this point in Illinois. Soon enough, we hope.
It’s hit and miss at the moment out here. Warm on day, freezing the next. Thanks, Brad.
That pretty much describes spring and fall in Illinois, and to some extent summer and winter.
I’m a fan of those red flowers too Tim …!
Thanks, Julie.
