Nature Friday - The Return of Green

During our hike in the sugar bush last weekend, we were impressed by how much greener everything has become in the past week. It is amazing how fast the leaves grow.


We will not pose when so much to smell!



Besides the green, one of Lady's searches was for the trillium. Off the highway there are spots with hundreds or thousands growing. Around our house, they tend to grow alone. Lady was happy to find one near the trail edge. 


Pretending to pose but busy looking elsewhere

We love walking in the bush. Thanks to Callie and her people for sharing it with us!

  4. That is such a beautiful trillium you found. They are very rare around here and only found in a few nature preserves. That sure is nice of Callie and her people to let you walk on their property.

  6. We haven't see a trillium in ages! But I remember seeing them blooming by the thousands along a highway many years ago. I don't even remember where.

    Oh, but it's so nice to finally see some greenery after so many months of dreariness! We can look out our windows and not see any of the neighbors' houses. Only beautiful green leaves! I'm sure it'll be like that for you soon too!

  12. No snow? Ah, trillium. Once had the pure delight of seeing a blanket of trillium covering the forest floor near the upper peninsula in Michigan ... what an extraordinary sight it was, as far as
    one could see, petals of white.

  14. Wish we had a fun trail like that near our house. The trillium is very pretty. This is Mom's favorite time of the year when everything is so new and fresh and green.
