Spring Beauties

The sun was warm but the wind was chill.
You know how it is with an April day.

Enjoy spring beauties; fresh flowers after each rain.
April is a hard-working time for these little guys. They bring spring beauties to us.
Up there, The Woodpecker is watching over her nest:
This little guy is waiting…
Springtime is filled with blooms, enjoy.
It’s hard to believe April is almost gone…
Happy Thursday!

Thursday’s Two Phrase Story #39 is up:
“The premise is simple. I provide one phrase every Thursday, an incomplete string of words, and it is up to you to complete it in your own, inimitable way. However you like, taking it in any direction you want.” ~ Dr. Hb

Beautiful Amy. Such lovely photos. It’s Autumn here in Australia so our flowers are no more in the main and the trees have all changed colour which is beautiful too.

Oh my pleasure Amy 😀 You know my obsession with butterflies!! Skippers are a real favourite of mine as well as blue butterflies in general 🙂 It’s wonderful when they do finally settle if only for a few moments! The skippers here tend to be out in late summer and autumn 🙂
