Spring Colors

I love spring in our neighborhood. The flowering trees and flowers are just breathtaking. They have come real early this year. In fact most of them have already gone by. I guess this year we can say "April flowers bring May showers."

 

Just a Mallard, Not

This mallard was having a Sunday morning bath, but not just any old type of bath. I mean a diving, swimming underwater, coming up and shaking off and diving again kind of bath!  I had never seen a mallard do that. I've seen mergansers, loons and other diving type birds do this but not a mallard. But whose to say he shouldn't enjoy his Sunday morning bath. I was enjoying my Sunday morning walk in the park and watching him.
