Spring

Spring has sprung! Well, it has for me anyway!
I checked the birds in the aviary this morning and was delighted to discover that our two baby Zebra finches had flown the nest.
One is grey and the other is fawn and they're miniature versions of their parents. At this stage they have black beaks which will gradually turn orange and almost red, in the case of a male bird.
Later, I was driving home from work through what we call the 'Long Cut', when I saw my first Sycamore leaves with the sun shining through them.
They were a brilliant green and looked good enough to eat!

Oh, how I love Spring!

Thanks for stopping by!
