A blooming crocus showing the fuzzy hairs that trap any available warmth, one of the characteristics that enables it to survive the often chilly nights, or even late snowfalls in this part of the world.

A crocus bloom captured in early May, near the Qu'Appelle Valley in Saskatchewan.

On summer evenings bees are attracted to a stand of hollyhocks near where I live. This bee seems to have found a plentiful source of pollen.

Every year I look forward to the delicate flowers produced by the hosta plants in my garden. They never disappoint.
