Weekly Photo Challenge - Spring

This weekly photo challenge was a challenge!
Spring
What do you think of when you hear that word?
I think season.
I think soft yellow greens, tulips, daffodils, violets, birds, robins, green grass....
I might also think of a spring, you know, like a slinky,
but it is the season, so....
Here's spring in Minnesota.
This is what the back yard looked like early this morning when Pixie first needed to go outside.
She loved it and ran in it!
I, on the other hand, was not as excited and thrilled as she was.
As the sun began to rise, you could see a little more clearly.
Not a tremendous amount of snow,
but more than enough.
Come on, Mother Nature,
it's almost the end of March!

Skeletons of buried twigs blossomed in the snow.
Shurbs were weighted down again.
Poor shrubs.

I feel your pain. Some of my shrubs do not look like they are going to recover from the weight of this year's snow! My fingers are crossed though! ~Val
