A Hint of Spring

This pretty pink blossomed tree was fooled into thinking it's spring as was this cute little bird.


We will stop and sit for a moment at the gazebo and imagine the weddings here in the spring.

Now we cross the bridge on our quest for hints of spring.


Alas...we've found a lovely bloom...a rarity in the month of December.


Now we're going to try not to get bogged down in the Bog Garden!

Seems only the white Camilla's are in bloom at this time...the rest are waiting for Valentines Day.


Time to admire the birds and blooms once again...

as we walk through the gardens on this warm balmy winter day.

On our walk we stop to admire yet another lovely white Camilla.

On our way out of the gardens we can't help but stop and admire this colourful scene.

After the long walk it's nice to stop and rest here...

while we stop and admire one last time the bird and blooms that hint at a promise of spring.


Be sure to come along on my next quest for signs of spring.

You sure did send a flash of warmth with those photos, Jan. Your shots are gorgeous!! The warbler is stunning surrounded by the pink. You did a great job, thanks for sending it our way!
