Earlier this week Mama and I took advantage of a sunny morning and headed to Sequoia Gardens in search of kind of some nature!
At first glance, it looked like everything was brown and dormant for the Winter. But Mama and I
started looking more closely and just look at what we found!
Little birdies singing in the trees
Flowers basking in the sun
Flowers that have turned into feathery seed to fly away and bloom in new places
Rain drops on red flowers....
Pretty seed pods
Shiny blooms
Look at these pretty Sweet Allysum flowers!
We even found these beautiful red foxglove type flowers!!
It sure was fun taking the time to sniff around and see what nature was out there! We hope you can get out and find some nature in unexpected places this weekend!
Hi Rosy,
ReplyDeleteGail and I felt brighter just looking at your colourful outfit, and then you showed us all those beautiful birdies and flowers and we were positively bouncing with joy.
Happy Nature Friday!
