Signs of Spring

April showers bring may flowers but what does April snow bring?  Yikes!  Very cold weather, buds...but will they make it?  Here are some of my favorite photos:

Buds trying to survive the cold, harsh April snow

My tulips...will they make it?

The grass that's almost long enough to mow

The neighbor's forsythia bush...mine hasn't even thought about coming out!

Another neighbor's bush...maybe azalea bush...

With all this messy weather, where are the other signs of spring?

A newly formed nest that was knocked out of it's tree

and a promise of sunnier days to come!
