More blooms

The big double-flowered cherry tree in neighbor Teri’s yard at the beginning of our street is now in full glorious bloom. I walked down the other day to get some photos of it.

On the way I found these two blooming trees growing wild in the woods. The white one is dogwood, but not sure what the pink blooming one is. It’s not obvious since it’s in a tangle with other trees.

Here is the tree from a distance. See how green everything is becoming?

I saw this nest tucked into the branches and thought it looked like a lovely place to build a home. Probably a robin.

I love the double flowers, whether lit by the sun or not.

I miss dogwoods.

What a fabulous pink canopy roof!  I would put my nest there, too!

The pink blossom on your first photo looks like crab apple to me.  Loved the photos of the pets.  Have a geat weekend.
