I just love early spring as everything comes back to life outside. My rhubarb that just barely broke the ground two weeks ago is now ready to be harvested. I feel a rhubarb crisp in my future! The biggest news, however, is that our neighborhood egret has returned!! He’s still fairly evasive and I haven’t gotten the best photos. Every time I get close enough, he high tails it. In the gallery below you’ll see one photo of him in flight. He’s far away, but I think it’s still cool. First are some early blooms from around my yard. Click anywhere in the gallery to see larger photos.
Now a gallery of early spring photos around our pond. And the egret!!
One last photo of a fabulous sunset seen about a month ago. The sky looked like it was on fire! Happy spring everyone!

Gorgeous spring scenes, Toby. :)
thanks so much!!
Do you make a mean rhubarb pie?
hubby is the pie maker, not me :) I wonder if he’d be interested in making a rhubarb pie. thanks for the suggestion!
My wife’s family made them. If I recall they blended either raspberry or strawberry with the rhubarb, probably whatever was available.
that sounds yummy!!
Spring and a little sunshine :) An intoxicating combination.
yes indeed!!
