WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK: Part 458 - Spring

Some really great spring photos here for sure. Hard to comment on all of them. Have been gone for awhile. Here are a couple of my spring pics. No pretty budding flowers here. Pic taken this morning. Getting whiter by the hour here.

You are so right Don. But that happens a lot here. Makes life interesting.

We started summer in February!
You may not start until July, Terry!

More great shots everyone.

Springtime also brings other stuff us car guys do not like but we must have. So me be also being a nature guy also, I am still happy with it......Pollen.

Spring also brings new friends to the Yard. We have these little bee houses set up in several places. The small bees come in, go to the back of whichever hole they choose, lay their young, and seal the hole on their way ot with pollen which will be food for the young as they grow and eat their way out.

Lastly, spotted this new visitor to the yard. Found him out back about 30 feet from the line in our yard. His shell was just over a foot long

Pete, I'm sure you know we have pollen like that down here in Atlanta too. That lovely yellowish pine pollen gets everywhere this time of year! That's also a nice tortoise! I've never seen one of those in my yard.

Here's my last spring shot. This time of year the 2 maple trees out front put out thousands upon thousands of these things. I thought I'd try to be artsy with a photo of one. (3 flashes on this shot)

Terry I like your shot of Spring and I like where you took it too. I did not get any flower shots, saw a few starting to bloom today. I had Ice an inch thick on my water tanks Sat morning, should have taken some pics of it to go with Terry's snow. Have enjoyed every ones photos this week, some very good shots were taken.

Ouch Steve. An inch of ice, now that's really a cool spring.

Pete, you need to get that car into a garage. Like the turtle shot.

Two thumbs up Lisa.

Grizz, mother nature can be so cruel at times. I'd move.

Those bee houses are pretty cool, I've never seen those before.
