Signs of spring

It is readily apparent that spring is coming. Not only did the layer of icky pollen on my nice shiny black car clue me in, but here's what I've seen this week:


Magnolia tree at the JC Raulston Arboretum


Peach tree blooms (JC Raulston Arboretum)


Redbud tree in the backyard


Corkscrew willow in the backyard - although it's difficult to see the buds, it's striking against the sky


Blueberry bush


Happy daffodils in the backyard


Potted daffodils


Irises


Red hyacinth coming up


The neighborhood cat, Harvey, looking for some attention


[Heavenly scented] Hyacinths
