Spring

Alas, a new season is before us and the time of hibernation is over.  I have a friend who loves winter.  This past winter I was trying to see the season through her eyes, but it was hard.  I love color.  I love life.  I missed seeing wildlife.  I love gardening...'nuf said.  So, I'm glad to see buds on the trees again.  I love seeing the birds hanging out in our yard.  I love seeing green reflected in the water.  

Two ducks waddled around in our yard a few days ago,  their nest amongst the yellow cream reeds out back.  The drake likes to float down the waterway, bobbing up and down with the ripples.  He's on his own sort of rafting trip, whilst the female tends to her nest.  Soon, we'll see little yellow fluff balls bobbing and floating behind their mom and dad.  Growth.  Life.  Ahhhh, Spring is here.
