There is a warmth in the air along with the delicious scent of jasmine. Looking around, I see signs that the cold winds of winter have left us. I see blooms and buds on my daily walks. Each day brings something new.
I passed it on the start and end of my 45-minute walk.
What signs are telling you Spring is in the air? Do you see more birds? Blooming plants?
I never heard of a mule deer. The agave is very interesting. The house down the street has one and when the stalk shoots up from the middle it looks just like an asparagus. His got so tall that he had to rig up a rope and counterweight to keep it from potentially falling on his roof.
That’s huge! Mule deers are common here. My neighbor said they are always in her yard. We have a wash behind our house and we watch them walk by.
We have flowers everywhere and the weather is nice. Neither too hot or cold.
That’s what’s it like here. I think it’s my favorite time of year.
Mine too, but I like autumn too.
We’ve been in spring for a month or so now. My tree allergies are subsiding a bit thankfully. My town is very bulb friendly so I love the color in all the yards when I walk.
I miss all the bulbs growing up in Washington.
Your surroundings have a different beauty, but if I’m honest I probably wouldn’t do well without my familiar surroundings.
It’s growing on me.
You get cardinals!! I don’t know why this surprises me.
The football team is the Cardinals. But I’m always surprised when I see them. I think because they are so striking. Four hours away in Palm Springs we didn’t have them.
Oh, wow!
Agave plant death blooms are always pretty impressive. Since the plant dies after sending up the shoot, it’s like a last gasp. What a way to go!
No kidding!
Ooh- please post the agave bloom when it appears! I’m very curious now 😉
I will!
Wildflowers blooming all around
