This squirrel was eating maple flowers. This is the only time I've seen one do this.
See its little hand, under its nose, holding the flowers?
I don't know what this yellow stuff is. Very low-growing. 3-4"?
As you can see in the next image, the petals are shiny, almost like they are coated in something....
Species tulips.
Cool clouds.
Violet-covered bank.
Every little purple dot, above, looks like this, up close and personal.
More clouds..............
This shows what the forsythia look like this year. Mostly bare of bloom, with a few scattered flowers. This specimen is unusual -- it has way more flowers than most of ts kin.
This is the same cluster of maple-tree flowers we've been watching. I wonder why the flowers-that-are-turning-into-seeds grow out on those long stem-like thingies..........
The chartreuse bits are growing into the wings that will fly the maple seeds away from the mother tree.
Daffodils, in the hard, slanting late-afternoon sun.
