The View from Here

Desert Willow

We've enjoyed these trees at three different locations. Blooms two or three times per year. 

Today

Took these today. There are fewer and fewer flowers each week. 

Tulips

Time to start thinking about planting bulbs. Mine will go into a half barrel this year, since I can no longer dig in the ground very much. 

Trees

Cedar Waxwing

Windmill

I was sad to notice this morning that last night's high winds knocked one of the blades loose and it is now dangling and making noise. A minor thing, but still...

 

Hawks

Thistles

I miss these! The vacant lot next to us always had lots of wildflowers. Now it is occupied by someone's house and manicured lawn. 

Bunnies

I've always loved rabbits. Raised them when I was a child. Had a friend with a "house rabbit" as a pet. When we lived in the country I saw them nearly every day. 

Pond View

I miss living next to a pond. I walked down to this one several times a week.
