Crabapples blooming
I celebrated Earth Day today by hiking through the Arboretum.
In the horticultural gardens, the blooming crabapple trees seemed to be at their peak.

Bleeding heart blossoms
Someday I’d like know why the blossoms of the bleeding heart evolved to that shape. These are from the perennial beds in front of my house.
Flight of the robin
At a local park today, there were quite a few robins hunting for worms in the grass. I spent about 15 minutes trying to get close, and capture a photo at the moment they flew away. Though a bit out of focus, this was the best shot I got.

Laughing iris
When I see irises close up, sometimes they look as if they’re laughing hysterically with their tongues hanging out. Maybe this one’s just happy spring came early this year?

Snowdrops
Two weeks ago, a snow storm brought five inches of snow to Madison.
With the summer-like, record temperatures we’re now experiencing, snowdrops were the only snow I could find on the ground today.
