Today I noticed the bleeding heart plant in front of my house has emerged and is about 8 inches tall. I noticed this WHILE I WAS SHOVELING SNOW.
Ah, spring in Wisconsin.

Indoor spring color
On a cold and dreary spring day, I went out looking for some color. I did find some… indoors (in the conservatory at Olbrich Botanical Gardens).
First blossoms
Proud cardinal
Caught this northern cardinal proudly singing away and claiming his territory. Another welcome sign of spring.
Emerging magnolia buds
Another sign that spring is almost here.
This way to summer
Things are really starting to green up nicely. Summer is just around the bend.
Capitol tulips
Another welcome sign of spring.

Carpet of blue
Scilla (or Siberian squill). One of my favorite spring flowers, I love the way its small blossoms can cover an entire area with blue.
New growth
Scene from a sunset walk
I had every intention to go on a hike or bike ride today. Instead, on the nicest day we’ve had in a long time, I spent most of the afternoon doing yardwork. [insert eye-roll here] So after supper I talked myself into going on a sunset walk. Not a bad day after all.
