Becky’s Squares has me mostly documenting the arrival of spring, but who knows I might surprise you with something different too, but not today.
I have been busy, the amount of energy it takes to learn is amazing – I am just not ready to sit by the computer at home after having been on it for 8 hour in the office. But I so love this blogging community that I’m trying to keep up posting something here and there.
This month’s theme is Renew. Or Burgeoning. Or Moving Forward. Or Reconstructing. You get the idea
Least gagea is the smallest lily that grows wild in Finland. Modest-sized least gagea blooms early in the spring while the land is damp, before other plants hide it from view. In Finland it is named after the cuckoo as it blooms when the first of these birds return, and they are in full bloom around Finnish Mothers’ Day, which falls on the second weekend of May. The flowers attract flower flies and beetles to pollinate it, but still it doesn’t produce many seeds.
Spring flowers, that’s it.
These are really wonderful
Delicate and pretty. Bernie
I’m glad you’re making the time to post in spite of your busy hours. These flowers are stunning.
Those flowers are beautiful – such a vivid spring-like shade!
Nothing like the freshness of the season to start the day.
Love that last image in particular. It makes me feel as though I’m an insect on the ground making a path through the undergrowth.
(and I know what you mean about being on the computer after an 8 hour working day on the computer). The good part about computer working hours at home are that they are about choosing to be on the computer at home, as opposed to having tasks at work which have to be done in any given day at work. Hope you’re enjoying your new job. 🙂
lovely pics
This is such a pretty flower Ritva! And how lucky you are that it blooms so close to Mother’s Day.
oh this is beautiful, and love that it times its blooming to welcome the cuckoos back each year
