APRIL SHOWERS BRING MAY(be) FLOWERS

More ominous clouds this week --- and cold rain today, on the last day of April. May Day! May Day?


One of the staff leaves when the chips are down, the other is ready to hum. A visiting neighbour is impressed with the waterfall --- but asked "when does it run out??"



Birds of a feather flock together --- there are consecutive waves of blue, red, brown, yellow, and  many combos of two-tone. One turkey lost his head on the lawn because Mrs. Turkey is digging a nest on the ground, too close to the window!



Speaking of tu-tones (as it was spelled in the heyday of colourful cars), how about a nice copper and black? It works for these tree buds or on this squirrel.


But the May flowers are for real, not may-be's. A daze of daffies, a pussy of willows, a veil of violets, a dandy-lion. Bee mine??




Like swallows returning to Capistrano, the local ferry Chi Cheemaun passed by on its shakedown cruise for the season. A day/night rehearsal for the summer. What's the pot of gold at the end of your spring rainbow?
