It's Spring at last!

I love Springtime!!! It is such a joyful time of the year and I never ever grow tired of it.  I especially like the start of the longer evenings, the shifting light patterns, the first hues of green leaves unfurling, primroses, tulips and other spring flowers, catkins and gorse flowers, fresh acer leaves, green grass and spring sunshine.  Ooo I just love it! I feel like an animal that has been hibernating over the winter and now the sunshine is warming my face and I want to explore. 

I have been out busy taking photos that mean springtime to me; here are a few:

The child in me still loves to get a dandelion clock and watch while I blow the seeds into the air
