On Trail With Nibi Mocs

Absolutely gorgeous weather today…. but, the weatherman says we have another front bearing down on us, bringing rain and cooler temps. I was definitely glad I could get out and enjoy even it if it was just around our yard. Here are some of my best shots from today…

A large patch of blue/yellow primroses are fully out now…

Here’s another closeup of one of them…

This one has a monocle

More daffodils are coming out. Doesn’t this photo just scream “APRIL!”?

Still don’t know what these are… but they sure are pretty…. Guess I’ll call them UFO’s for now — Unidentified Flowering Objects . If someone can I.D. these for me, I’d sure appreciate it.

An Unidentified Flying Object (in this case, a butterfly) was sure attracted to the Unidentified Flowering Objects.

I did finally find out that these are Scilla’s. And, I finally got a couple of nice shots of them.

This one had a visitor.

Sorry to be posting so many flowers lately. But, they are fun to photograph and, since these were all taken around my yard, I haven’t had to use any gas! Cheap Shots!

If things go according to plan, I should have photos of a completely different nature to share next week. Please stay tuned. Also, please make a comment or two — so I know I’m not just talking to myself.

We had some pretty decent weather on Sunday and Monday, with highs reaching well into the 70’s although a tad breezy and humid. I took a tour of our flower gardens, camera in hand, to check on the progress.

Crocusses are almost all done now. I did find a couple of purples still trying to attract some pollinators….

There are a few daffodils starting to bloom now with many more buds about to open.

The primroses that I photographed in bud the other day are now fully out.

While some others are now starting to bud.

We have some other flowers that neither Pat nor I can identify.

I took photos of several other flowers but, thanks to the breeze, they didn’t turn out so well. Today, after thunderstorms rolled through the area last night, is cooler, calmer and the sun is just starting to shine. I think I may go out for a few retakes.
