Ruby Tuesday: Going Round In Circles

Haven’t been out and about much lately (and neither has the sun, these past few days) but I found this in my archives from last year. Don’t think I’ve used it before. From a playground at a daycare center – photo taken on a weekend with no children about.

Shadow Shot Sunday–Crocus

Welcome, wild harbinger of spring!
  To this small nook of earth;
Feeling and fancy fondly cling
  Round thoughts which owe their birth
To thee, and to the humble spot
Where chance has fixed thy lowly lot.

        Bernard Barton—To a Crocus.

Friday My Town: Bring on the Green

We don’t celebrate St Patrick’s here, but luckily Nature is doing her best to bring on the green anyway. I’m afraid I’ve not been too well and not able to be out and about a whole lot. But I did manage to take the camera out for a peek into a garden or two nearby.

Green is even getting a bit of competition from other colours:

Snowdrops

Crocuses

The spring sun also woke some small tortoiseshell butterflies up from winter hibernation this week.

Why should a dustbin need to be dull?

“Spring is sprung,
the grass is riz,
I wonder where the birdie is.
They say the bird is on the wing.
But that's absurd.
The wing is on the bird.”
