Spring is definitely here and it gladdens the heart!
Thanks for sharing your Spring photo, my dear TeamProg!

from the buds-n-blooms stage to Time to Leaf Out!
We see it all over everywhere here (NW Oregon). Birds have LOTS of hide-the-nest potential in plenty of time to lay eggs.
Im NO expert but Ive enjoyed watching the seasons come and go up here every year, and its everything they say about it. Nothing like it in SoCal. Palm trees everywhere down there. Pine trees everywhere up here!
😁❤️👍

as the trees began to leaf.

(6,630 posts)3. Green lace of spring is a very fitting term, I think. The trees are way past leafing out 1,200 ft below us in town, but
at 3,100, we're behind.
Thanks for the thoughful comment.
