Hostas, Cardinals and Tulips

This week the hostas are coming up strongly, and cardinals are out early in the morning.  The dogwood flowers are growing, and the red buds are in full color.  Blooms are gone from the early flowering trees like the cherries.  Daffodils are fading, and tulips are blooming in their stead.  On the forsythia, green leaves have replaced most of the yellow blooms, and the red maples are leafed out.

It's a beautiful time of year.  Sometimes the sensation is overwhelming, and the new green leaves on a tree overhead against the bright blue sky is plenty to revel in.
