The weather has been nice , all though yesterday was chilly but at least the sun has been shining . I have been weeding after all the rain we had at the beginning of the week and over the nights it has been dewy . I also have been busy moving things around in my gardens mainly wild ferns as a lot of them would of shaded to many of my plants so I moved them and even potted some up , they are a plant that spreads it’s seeds well , then I was keeping my Lilly of the valley under control as they spread like crazy , other then this I have been just enjoying the sunny days , going for walks with my Miggs , taking photos and taking in all the nature and colour that has returned !
I like photographing fungi , with its many different forms and textures and how they can cascade down a log or rock like a water fall , or stick out the side of a tree !
Mr Bumble bee having a rest on my geranium leaf !
Mrs Squirrel building a nest up in our big old maple tree !
Mrs Oriole who has been popping in and out of her nest she built !
Charlie has been feasting more at the feeders .
We have lots of colourful song birds hanging out here enjoying the weather and food !
Papa and I the other evening were busy putting up our solar garden lamps that we forgot we had lol !
Miggs watching the yard and relaxing in the cool grass after we had a game of ball !
Beautiful cloud formations over the valley !
So my week has been full of This N That and today, Miggs and I will go for our usual morning walk and then I will be edge trimming as Papa cut the grass yesterday evening , it is already sunny and warming up out side and it is only 7am . I love getting up early and watching the sun rise and hearing all the birdies singing and watching them at the feeders as I have my morning tea out on the patio .
Until next time my friends !

Beautiful photos of nature in your own backyard! It's neat to see the oriole's nest. They are rare birds around here. I like your new solar lamps. Hopefully it will warm up for the weekend and we'll all get some sunshine. Have a great weekend!

Morning, enjoy my visits to your blog. Such great pictures, love all the scenery, birds and of coarse Miggs, Blessings Francine.
The skeeters are out in full force here, so much so that they are even being talked about on the radio. lol
We have a red bird nesting in our honeysuckle this year. You have Great birds we don't have here they move north after winter.
It sounds like a lovely week of this and that! Your pictures of the clouds are amazing. Hope that your weekend is a good one. xx
all beautiful. :)
Beautiful shots. Spring is really showing itself with gusto!
We've been using more solar lights this year, just fitted 2 by the garage planters. It's a drippy, damp, rainy day today ... sometimes this is the best lighting to get photos.
I like your solar lamps!
There'll be plenty of sun this weekend to get them charged.
Have a lovely weekend.

Nice to meet everyone in your backyard oasis, Elaine.

Hi Elaine, the bird that you call Charlie, is he a downy woodpecker? We have the pilated, and the little downies...but I haven't seen this one before.
