Few signs of spring
 

The weather finally cleared and I got to look around the yard today. Was happy to see some signs of the coming warm weather. Its been a long winter.

There is a tiny pond in our back yard and the turtles were out getting some sun.

thanks for the turtles!

I remember them of all sizes,
sunning themselves on the logs at the weird lake of many fingerlings,
in Newport News, Virginia. (years ago)

The tulips here are bravely one inch high. (wisconsin)
A few more weeks and i will need the antihistamines also.

Nice photos....thanks.

A lush and promising change of season. Thanks, fotzlid.

You're welcome.
