There is still snow everywhere, though it is beginning to melt. But typical Colorado weather, the sun was shining brightly and the skies were a very vibrant blue. The temperature was perfect. The lakes are still quiet, but the ducks and geese are beginning to swim side by side once again, and the buds are started to pop up as well. My irises, though covered in snow at the moment, were already peeping their shoots up through the ground before we got hit by snowmageddon and the buds in the trees are becoming very plentiful too. It won’t be too long now. Spring is in the air.

The Canadians scouting out the grounds.

Ring-necked ducks checking out the neighborhood.



There were some hooded mergansers out and about too.

There was even a Northern Flicker looking at real estate and his view from above.


Take a walk in the sunshine, clear your head and take it all in.
The longer the winters, the more special the spring is. Enjoy! 🙂
