Does my heart good to see your tree sprouting, snafu. Our spring definitely shows no signs of arrival. Even as I write we are receiving the tail end of the tornados that rampaged through the States. Thankfully only severe high winds, with trees and wires down - not the devastation they received.
Love the photos of your robin - amazing what lengths creatures will go to when they are hungry!

Happily married, retired. The name SNAFU was accidental, I got cross with Blogger because my name is so commonplace any variation I could think of was already in use. Computer systems do not do sarcasm and so it accepted my comment as my user name. I am not hiding my identity, my name is Pete Morris. Lifelong geek and technophile. Bookshelves in nearly every room of the house, from Blyton to Einstein. Spent most of my working life training adults in geeky stuff, from basic electrics to computer systems. My heroes are, amongst others, Richard Feynman, Freeman Dyson and Eric Laithwaite and if you don’t need to look them up in Wikipedia then you are my kind of geek. .
I love corkscrew hazel, but with my small garden I decided on a cascading willow instead. (Which is not the same as a weeping willow apparently).
ReplyDeleteYour robin looks like he's having fun. Maybe he's trying to keep fit! :)

I wondered how Kaybee was doing. Now I know. I do so miss the beautiful English Robin -- and the catkins, tho' we can see those in Boise.
ReplyDeleteRobins really are beautiful birds, and so friendly as well. You got some stunning images!
ReplyDeleteComing back again to say how much I do like the contrast between the tree with snow and then with catkins.
