SPRING MIRACLES

Stand still on a dark night to hear the wonders of the frogs. You'll hear the spring peepers and another frog that I've not identified singing in chorus. Surely God's idea of beauty, not mine.

The field of dreams here at our home is the field of daffodils that lie south between our house and the pond. We look forward to this time each spring when the daffodils are in full bloom. And while they continue to multiply in their naturalized state, we add 50 or more bulbs to the area each fall. For us, it's a sure sign of spring.

Our choice of varieties is King Alfred.

One of Karol's joys.

ALL.....very pretty!

The forsythias, blooming simultaneously, add to the arrangement.

Today we had five male and one female Baltimore orioles at our grape jelly. They seem to prefer the jelly over the oranges, although I believe that the orange color may attract them. Additionally, we had both male and female Rose-breasted grosbeaks.

The forsythia is now in full bloom on the southern side of our home.
