I am starting to believe...

in spring.  The apple blossom is opening on the tree and I saw my first bee and a butterfly today.  Not quick enough to capture either of those, but at least the apple blossom kept still for me.  The weather has been beautiful today (for those who like the heat, I don't function very well I'm afraid), an ideal day for photography.  Hope you are all enjoying the weekend.
Thank you to everyone who helped my 'spotty' blackbird to get onto the popular pages, a lovely surprise.
