The white daffodils are in bloom with the iris.
A lovely combination.
There is a man made pond near the Nature Center.
I was pleased to see frogs!
Someone has installed a bee box by the pond.
Some of the understory in the woods is in bloom.
A Damselfly flew near.
The first one I have seen this year.
A pair of Dragonflies patrolled the natural pond.
I stayed on the trail today.
I enjoyed the Red bud Trees.
It is their time.
A Spring Azure flew by me and landed for an instant.
I am so happy to see the bugs again.
So very happy.

You are truly celebrating and witnessing Nature's Symphony.
Beautiful...
Thanks for taking us with you on your springtime walk. We used to live in Wentzville, not too far away from you. At this time of the year, I really miss that part of the Heartland.
So many wonderful photos!! I can't decide on a favourite in today's batch!! That is the first iris I have seen anyone post this spring! The white daffodil is so perfect! The bees in the flowers! The macro of the redbud!! Such a wealth of treasures!
what a wonder spring is with all of the new life it has to offer. just taking time to breathe it all in is so wonderful...glad you share it with us.
lovely shots. they are very beautiful.
Cheers!
I enjoyed this beautiful walk with you! I marveled at the cute little frog and could smell those pretty flowers!
Mr. frog is the best
I too am happy to see the bugs again! It was an especially cold and snowy winter here in my zone 5 garden. Speaking of bugs, I am, Friday night as part of a short "Gardening for Success" workshop our Master Gardeners are presenting to the public. And I enjoyed "walking" along with you Ms. Sherry. (I won't mention the taste of frog legs.)
B E A U T I F U L.
Just beautiful.
*cheers*
What a beautiful spring walk! The white daffodil is outstanding, we are just starting to see insects here in Iowa, I saw my first butterfly last weekend.
This is all wonderful Sherry, such lovely photos of Nature's bounty. I have left a longer comment on Q's Corner.
Hi Sherry...I enjoyed my walk with you. I love the swimming frog shot. Of course, my favorites are your Damsel and Dragon captures. Very nice!...Your dragonfly is a Springtime Darner, usually the first to return in Spring. Happy May...looking forward to more walks!
What fabulous photographs, everything looks a bit more advanced than here in the UK.
Uh oh...I am hooked on your blog.
Love your pictures.
:D
