Today's Flowers: Springing Forth

At last in the flower beds there is green pushing through!

Little 'fans' pushing up all over!
Little green sculptures of hope for the coming spring.

Green! You have green! I am green with envy! But you have increased my renewing hope that there really is a possibility of Spring.

Exciting to see the first sign of spring sprouting forth. Thank you for sharing a promise of spring :) Makes me feel good just to look at those photos.

Little iris leaves!! I would jump up and down if I could even see dirt, let alone green!! But it will come, right?
I love the shadows in the nest post, too, especially the corkscrew shadow!!
And the deer, too

Lucky you! Our snow melted yesterday, but nothing green is showing yet. Do you still have spring peepers in West Virginia - the little frogs that sing in the spring? I still miss those.

There's so much hope there in those fans, Carletta.

Alas! My gardens are still under snow. SO, I'll visit yours...via Today's Flowers. ;-)

That is why most of us like the Spring. The new life emerging telling us of good things to come. Yes!!! It is time. MB

Crocus? Or tulips? Yaay!

Melli said...

NOW I'm jealous! I have seen NO such evidence in my yard! I'm going to make sure to LOOK HARD tomorrow though!

Dr.John said...

THat is so wonderful. We still have at least a foot of snow on the ground so I doubt anything is pushing up here but it is good to know spring is coming somewhere.

Gattina said...

I don't do "Today's flowers" for the moment because there are none except in the shops and that's always the same. It's time that spring arrives !
At least you have the first signs !

Firefly Nights said...

I finally had time to stop by and catch up on what I'd missed over the past couple of months when I wasn't reading blogs. Glad to see you're still doing all of your great photography. I especially enjoy Sky Watch and your photos and info on the area and history around where you live.

Carletta: Wonderful signs of spring, hope they are snow tolerant because we are not done yet.
Our snow will probably be mostly gone today.

George said...

Hooray! We're starting to see some green as well. It sure helps the spirits.

Very fine images, with that new green sprouting.

You have something green coming up? Wow. I can see our ground by the end of Sunday, but it was hard as a rock.

The green of spring pushing forth..refreshing. I had to play "the Rose"..I like Bette, though the song makes me want to cry.
