I LOVE wild birds, and baby bluebirds are my favorite. Every spring they flock to an ornamental fruit tree in my back yard and pick away at the remaining berries on it that the squirrels couldn’t get at.
Don’t even ask me how I got this picture, but I promise you nobody got hurt and all the baby birds were fine.
On another note, I think spring is finally here. Flowers are popping up everywhere and the snow is melted. I can’t wait to take pictures of something other than winter scenes.
I took this photo around a month ago when my flowering plum tree dropped it’s petals after a storm. This is my happy place to relax and smell the fresh Michigan air.
Another one of my happy places is the Frederik Meijer Gardens, which is celebrating their 15th anniversary this year. I’m planning on going there soon and taking photos of the Chihuly: A New Eden Exhibit, it’s truly amazing with his work at 15 sites.
For a short time I lived in Washington State when I was a little girl. Other than the rain every day, I remember seeing beautiful rows of trees like this. I was traveling up north on a windy, windy spring day and saw these trees with rows of fruit trees beyond them, just starting to blossom. It doesn’t matter what time of year it is there, it’s always beautiful.
After a long cold winter, it’s so great to see the sun and beautiful Michigan Sky. I took this photo driving through the mid-Michigan countryside. I will definitely be taking this route next time I go up north. Although I drove for 3 hours, it went by fast because the scenery was so stunningly gorgeous. Way nicer than the highway!
Yesterday was awesomely everything that comes when you KNOW spring is in the air. You can see it, feel it and smell it. So, I went driving around in Michigan’s farmland and took a bunch of pictures right before sunset. I took this one on a horse farm and this gal just couldn’t figure out what I was up to. I think her name was Emily, she wanted look at my camera… close up. I’ve never been around horses much, but I really like them.
For those of you who love scenic farmland and barn shots, I’ve got a bunch coming up this week.
I was on my way back from dropping art off at Synchronicity in Glen Arbor and took a detour through the woods here. It was early spring and the trees hadn’t bloomed yet. In spite of this, it was still beautiful in the spring. This is in a detour off M-22, just take the loop around South Port Oneida Road. It’s awesome and you’ll love it!
