They grow them big at the Mayflower house.

This swan seemed to love the camera. He would swim right up next to me and then turn and glide by me.

The swans are still at the Public Garden but I’m sure they will be moved to their winter home in the next month. The swan boat rides also…

Some of the beautiful flowers from The Mount garden.

One of the sunflowers in Mom and Dad’s yard sprouted three heads!

After bathing a quick shake to dry off and show off.

Now I understand how swans keep themselves so white and clean. Video at the bottom.   Swan Bathing from JETeye on Vimeo.

Apparently, all the birds were taking baths around the same time. I guess just after lunch time is bath time.

After taking a bath it was back into the water for a refreshing swim.

On Saturday, I ate lunch outside at the Jenney Grist Mill and watched the ducks take a bath.

Another pretty flower from my brother’s yard.

Looking forward to the weekend..even if it rains all weekend. I’m tired and hope to fit in a couple naps and laying low (maybe a little work, to…

It’s a rainy Monday after a beautiful weekend. I’m just inching along today.

Some of the pretty flowers in my sister-in-law’s garden.

Bought some flowers for my deck. Actually, I have quite a little flower garden going. I’m not usually good with plants but so far they are doing pretty…

Some flowers pass by so quickly.

Very colorful tulips near my work. A nice sight after a long winter.

I like the soft muted colors of this flower.

Flowers are blooming everywhere. I have to keep stopping on my way to work to take pictures.

Another shot that looks more like Fall than Spring. Don’t worry, colorful Spring shots coming tomorrow.

My brother has a bird that builds a nest right outside his front door. You can see it from inside the house or you can stand on the…

Looks like the Spring thaw unveiled leaves left over from the Fall.

It’s been cold and rainy the past few days. I’m really getting tired of walking to work and being cold and wet. The weather was starting to take…

I’ll be happy to go back to the Mayflower House garden and take photos when the roses are blooming.

A lone clam shell brought far up on shore either by the winter storms or by someone else. It was quietly basking in the sunlight.

Cold this morning but they are saying it may be close to 50 today. Tomorrow should be in the 50s but rainy. I’m okay with that as long…

Happy Spring! Tonight’s forecast, snow showers. Eventually, the weather has to get warmer. Enjoy.
