Spring's Flora: Part Two - Next Generation

More pictures of the gardens and trees. This is a bit redundant, with the pictures and all. However, this is all that is happening here, weather warming and gardening being prepared. This past weekend we weeded and poured a new layer of soil into the garden beds, waiting until Memorial Weekend, which is in May, to plant vegetables. The birds are nesting, we have two robin's nests in the same pine tree close to the patio so we can see them clearly enough and the next generation of geese have hatched already. I'm a amazed that it is this far into Spring already!

 
Flowers of the pear tree after an afternoon rain. From these white blossoms will grow the small inedible fruits carrying seeds birds will enjoy.
