Botanical Wonders

I don't seem to tire of photographing the spring blossoming. Everyone here appreciates the spring when it finally comes, but we don't always notice the details. The flowers on the trees go through a gradual blooming over weeks, but the leaves seem to emerge almost overnight.

I laughed to see the ladybugs covered in pollen on the tree flowers. The larches are now covered with soft bright green needles but there are still a few flowers on them.
