    Here are pics of what is blooming.
    There is a bit of a story in this pic. About 25 years ago, my wife made peach jam with a mix of regular peaches and white peaches. She threw the skins and pits over into the brush at the edge of the property. About 10 years later we realized that a peach tree was growing there. It is the white peach variety. But it is too shady there for the peaches to grow properly. They only get as big as golf balls. The tree was too big to move to a sunny location when we realized that we had one. But if this pic dosn't say SPRING, then I don't know what does!

    I have two peach trees I got the same way. When I fed our two rabbits this morning, I heard bees working on the blossoms.

    Both your photos could be "poster children" for Spring!
