Lots of pretty blooms ... way ahead of my garden ... at daughter's house this morning and she had lots of blooms as well ... another chilly, windy day here.
ReplyDeleteNot really Linda....things that are usually up...aren't!
Deletesunny today...but that chilly wind is still blowing!
Boy, it sure looks a lot better than yesterday's pix of bergie bits on the shore!
ReplyDeleteHi Furry....bergie bits...I like that!
DeleteLooks lovely Linda. (that's alliteration) :-) Yes, we definitely need some more warm and sunny days to warm the earth and bring forth the blooms. It looks nice and cozy in the cottage with the fire going.
ReplyDeleteIt was nice inside...thank goodness!
Deleteoh such beautiful photos, you are so much further ahead than we are, the cottage looks wonderful, looks like home to me,
ReplyDeleteOh thanks Laurie...I like to think of it as my second home♥️
DeleteVery brutal living out there in the winter!
So lovely to see all that you have coming along, it will be like having spring all over again for us as so many of these flowers have been and gone and now I will get to enjoy yours for a second time! Glad that you are having fun out there seeing what is going on and what you can find on the beach. xx
ReplyDeleteI will do my best to give you a second Spring Amy!!
DeleteAt lest you already had one....we are kind of still waiting over here......
I love finding things on the beach...
Now that's the spirit, bring on the blooms! I have found more than normal "tragedies" in the yard for this time of year also. I guess the birds are having weather issues too:) Oh look at me, I'm spelling my words right today. Yesterday I could barely type after putting down more than 4 yards of mulch. Glad you're feeling better, Linda. Great shots!
ReplyDeleteI just spotted one here at home this afternoon :o(
DeleteWhy is it always the Robins eggs!?
4 yards of mulch???? YIKES!
Looks like a fun day of snapping pictures.
ReplyDeleteguess you could say that....it would have been waaay more fun if the sun was out!
DeleteIt turned out to be a nice day today here we were in the gardens . Sunny and warm . Our Hummers and Orioles are now back and the chipmunks have come out of hibernation to ! Papa did the first grass cutting of the season today as well , I love the smell of fresh cut grass ! Wonderful photos ! Thanks for sharing . Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteProbably because it is a North wind today...LOVE North winds at the cottage...LOVE!
DeleteI will have to take a few oranges next time I go...for the Orioles!
Your greens are much brighter than ours down here! Wow!
ReplyDeleteWe're still cold and grey and windy! Nice weekend to stay inside, which I did!
Probably because it was so darn DULL!!!
DeleteSame here Betsy....cold and windy...but sunny...stayed in...had a visit from Miss V!
I love these little birds!
ReplyDeleteCute!
And love your cloggers lol
I love my cloggers too Gloria!
DeleteThey are perfect for wet gardening!
I am happy to say that my surroundings seem to be more colorful than some but it is still so cold out !! whine whine ! I love the birds and the brightness of the green ! One day you will wake up and it will all be color and sunshine and warm. ( this is what I tell myself too )
ReplyDeleteI just planted a pot of hot pink impatiens and seeds for morning glories and nasturtiums. We will see if there is any green left in my thumbs :)
I am sure your green thumb is still working!
DeletePlanting seeds,eh? Miss fancy pants! Hahaha!
Thanks for stopping by♥️
Love the clarity in your photos, capturing intersting plant lfe and those delightful birds.
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed at how some hardy plants can flourish in such inhospitable places, like on the beach.
Hope next time you go it will be warner for you but that open fire looks very inviting. I'd love to roast some chestnuts they - ok if I pop over? lol
Why thanks Eddie....perennials are awesome!
DeleteI am always surprised at what shows up on the beach....
Certainly plenty more to come, as the season progresses....
Come on over...but....bring your own Chestnuts! Hahaha!
Why haven't you got any?
DeleteOr are you hoarding them all yourself?
Now come on! Sare and share alike LOL
We do have a few Chestnut trees along our stretch of the Lake...but....
DeleteThe Chestnuts fall in the Fall!
So...if you can wait....we can do it in the Fall....
Okey dokey?
Now that would be great - I'll bring Betsy! and we can all sing, "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire!". Oh that's a Christmas song isn't it? I love chestnuts!
DeleteI see you didn't require assistance onto the bus ROFL. You'll get used to my sense of humour in time!!
Oh I am used to your sense of humour Eddie....no worries there!
DeleteEnjoy your new week....
If we get any duller it will be dark.What a miserable week/weekend.
ReplyDeleteJane x
That it was Jane...
DeleteLet's hope for a better week ahead....
Ah, the gold finch. Love those fluffy little butts. Hang in there, Linda. I hear it will be nice next week. It was so dull, rainy and dark here today that all I could think of doing was 'hunting' for some treasures at a local flea market/antique shop. I came home with two new treasures (pottery) and then my son texted us to say "come for dinner". So, all in all it was a fun day. :) Hope tomorrow we see some sun, eh! Hugs, Deb
ReplyDeleteAt least you got out!
DeleteI am hacking,blowing and can hardly talk....
I feel sorry for me....
Lucky you went out for dinner.....
Sun....yes....that's the ticket!
I love seeing all the birds you have around there. It looks like things are starting to spring up a little more. I hope today is a sunny one for you.
ReplyDeleteHopefully the Orioles and Purple Martins will arrive soon!
DeleteLove it, especially the violets which have the most amazing fragrance ever!
ReplyDeleteWe've passed tulips, daffodils and other spring flowers and are now enjoying blooming irises of all colours and roses
Hi Dez....
DeleteOur Iris will be in June...hopefully...love those!
Don't have any roses...I really must get a bush....how about you?
I love your cloggers!!! Mine are simply green, withouth fancy patterns;) And these yellow birds are so precious!
ReplyDeleteThanks Aga...they were a gift from my son last Mothers Day♥️
