Colors and Surprises of Spring

There's such a wealth of color in these Spring days;
from the floral purples....

...oranges and yellows...
...to the stunning mating plummages of the birds!

I saw my first eastern bluebird this year and was able to get a few quick shots at him.
I have longed to see one in real life since I became acquainted with it on Jayne's blog last year.
I was not disappointed. It is the sweetest little bird
and, as is often the case,
the timing was perfect.
