Challenge - Mar. 31 - Apr. 2 - Signs of Spring
Many of us are still waiting for Spring to arrive, but others already are well into Spring! I would like you to post the 1st signs of Spring you have in your area. It could be a simple bud on a branch or tulips and daffodils to snow crocuses. Different things pop up or out in different places in early spring. It could be a nest with eggs or simply out with your binoculars looking for birds. And if you are lucky you could see some new born lambs or other critters! Use your imagination. This could also be a time to do some inside/outside photos of spring flowers. Practice your lighting or macro work! Make it a project to improve your photography! Ask questions if you are having problems with it.
Agnes has a "similar" challenge but different enough as it is later in the month. At that time more things will be out and ready to photograph! So save some for then! :-)
Looking forward to seeing what you got!
1st sign is the return of the Tundra Swans

You are much farther along than we are.
First sign of spring around here....
Done this morning.......
lets hope spring is on it's way!
When you see these....it has arrived
I'm like Roadrunner not many signs of spring here yet. As it will be warm sunny in the 70's one day and we get hit by a Blizzard the next day. I have noticed the birds have been busy nest building so that's a good sign.
Meadowlark happily singing away
A Robin all puffed up on a spring day
I think this meadowlark is wondering when this snow to going to be gone
