Pink and Blue

I walked to work before dawn this morning, passing a cardinal loudly singing his three part song.  On my walk home, I stopped under some cherry trees in the park that are just beginning to bloom.  Their pink color bursts out from the gray and brown backdrop.  Other trees and shrubs are just beginning to bud.  Change will be visible day by day now, as life here on this part of Earth wakes up from the dormancy of winter.

A blue jay flew up into a tree by the cherries, another bright spot of color.  I don't see them nearly as much as robins, cardinals, and mockingbirds.  They were a common sight in Kansas as I was growing up, and I enjoy seeing them, and their raucous attitude.
