fiery fence HFF!

26 Mar 2021 48 35 313
The last light streams in laterally and lights up the top of a hedge fence. This may look like autumn, but it's actually spring: the new leaves in this particular plant are red, pink or pale gold until they can synthetize enough chlorophyl to turn green (see a close up in the PIP). The grey background is the back of a climbing crag facility in the adjacent lot. So, here's hoping you all have a fiery HFF!

Happy Easter!

Just a little sign of peace and hope from my half wild garden. Health, Peace, and Beautiful Light to all And may the nasty bug perish without offspring so we can all be free again!

lady blackbird - HFF!

I don't have the right equipment to even attempt wildlife shots, but this blackbird female must have gotten used to me walking laps around the garden and for once allowed me to come within a decent shooting distance as she poised on the neighbour's fence. Not exactly an Easter dove, but close enough! :) HFF and a good Easter weekend to all!

Looking up at my neighbour's tree beginning to fill out its canopy with new leaves and blossom clusters tall enough to reach up into the evening sunlight.

garden finds

Spring is by far my favorite time of the year and being confined at home at this time is undeniably a bummer. But really I should not complain, since I am one of the lucky ones who have a garden where I can still enjoy glimpses of Nature's awakening. Here's a still life of the colorful finds I collected in the garden yesterday. Have a good week, everyone.

A Japanese quince bush all dressed up in its fiery red spring color. I love the waxy texture and showy hardiness of these flowers. These grow right up against a garden fence on the street side, which allowed me to stick my camera between the fence posts and take a close up of a group of blossoms surrounded by a sea of their siblings.
