Daffs-o-Delight

 

I loves me some daffodils, and it was such a delight when a friend dropped these by. They are so sweet and such harbingers of spring...

Cut

 

Bits and bobs from the cutting garden...

Crowned

 

Behold, a lovely orange-crowned warbler. So cute!

Showing off his orange crown to good effect here...

Messy hair, don't care.

Come On Pom

 

Lots of flowers on the pomegranate at the moment...fingers crossed they turn into fruit.

Oh Yeah

 

A big ol' pizza...what better on a Friday night?!

Dove, Dove

 

Look at these two sweeties just chillin' ... 

The Blimp, the Blimp!

 

I watched this Goodyear blimp fly over...

...and then it got stuck in this tree! (JUST KIDDING!)

P.S. You get a gold star if you recognize the Fantasy Island reference in the title.

Hello, Stranger

 

Look at this lovely in our pomegranate tree. He is a Townsend's warbler (I believe). I love his black mask! Birds...they make me so happy.

Moonie

 

Much more golden in person, but lovely nonetheless! 

Spring Buzz

 

I could hear this lovely before I could see it...

Happy Irish Soda Bread Day

 

Pretty darn yummy!

Layers

 

Good One

 

Sew Old School

 

I am so pleased that this cool old school sewing machine shop hangs in there...it's full of all sorts of machines. (It is also right next door to Niederfrank's, the best ice cream in San Diego [technically, it's in National City]).

Beauty!

(I kinda like the reflections mixed in with the machines...)

Popp(y)ing In

 

Yellow Bird

 A pretty little yellow warbler enjoying the fountain!

Hanging On

 

This gorgeous amaryllis, bought before Christmas, sent up another shoot with four big blooms on it (wow!). And the teeny poinsettia looks as good as it did the day it came into the house, also before Christmas. 

Annual Display

 

It's time once again for the annual display of wisteria; this one is just down the street from us. We need smell-o-vision: it smells heavenly! 

Here is Miss Mae enjoying the wisteria a few years ago...
