Spring is now officially here...
Beachcombing and remnants of the mighty winds which blew last night around the coast...
(no damage for us as far as we can see but snow in the forecast!)
Gentle waves lap the shore whilst angry clouds still hover above...
Neighbours visiting...
The doe knows it well...we'll never say 'no' to a treat or two...
Closeup...camera shy? Me?
WITH SPRING COMES MUCH BEGGING
THE YEAR'S AT THE SPRING
AND DAY'S AT THE MORN;
MORNING'S AT SEVEN;
THE HILLSIDE'S DEW-PEARLED;
THE LARK'S ON THE WING;
THE SNAIL'S ON THE THORN;
GOD'S IN HIS HEAVEN -
ALL'S RIGHT WITH THE WORLD!
(Robert Browning)
A warm hello from the Pacific NW coast and Happy Spring to all!
The deer sure are sweet. We were hoping to see some at the State Park last weekend but didn't this time. Happy Spring my friend!

ReplyDeleteThis is a rather tiny island at less than 1 1/2 mile long by 1/2 mile wide Maria but it holds many deer and whilst most of our blooms disappears overnight (unless fenced), we love them! Best time of the year is when fawns shows up...
ReplyDeleteWith occasional whale sightings, dophins and sea otters, we have eagles, countless sea birds and land ones and feel a little in Heaven!
All the best,
