Too-Early Spring

As it is supposed to drop to 26 F tonight, these little bits of growth may all end up frozen, but on the day I took the pictures, it was gorgeous.

Rose leaves...
 Daffodils...
 Plum buds...
 Willow green...
I love the way green creeps over this tree until, suddenly, it's full of leaves!
 Strutting tom, named Effingham Sandwich...
It's a long story.  He likes to show off for me, but he stalks the rest of the family and scares them.  He may not last past this summer.

 Buzzing bees...
I'm ridiculously grateful that the bees survived the winter, as we are new bee-tenders.
Until next time, remember, this is not paradise.  It's Purgatory Ranch.
