A few transitional photos

As we make the slow transition to spring here in northern New Jersey there isn’t much to photograph. The snow is melting and what is left is dirty and ugly. Not a pretty sight.

I walked down into our woods to see if the skunk cabbages were popping their funny heads up yet, and they are just starting.

Then I walked outside our fence and down to the little stream. It’s moving along pretty good right now with all the snow melt and the recent rain. It was still cold enough for some ice to accumulate on a few things. Kind of pretty!

I’m not quite sure just how these “swizzle sticks” form but I think they are cool.

I love to see the first signs of Spring - we have snowdrops, crocus and now daffodils beginning to bloom.  The nights and mornings are getting lighter and the bird song is a delight to hear.  Still quite cold but some lovely sunny days of late.

Joyce, snowdrops and daffodils would be a sight for my sore eyes right now! I think our rainy today might just uncover the ground where my bulbs are planted. I love the bird song as well in the morning!
