The last tuesday in April

Just a glorious morning, warm and sunny.  On my  dog walk i noticed  the spring flowers, violets & spring beauties all turning their cheery little faces to the sun.  I never noted this before but it makes perfect sense.

i found some yellow violets and will have to get the camera and go back for a photo shoot.  checked an area where i used to have just a few 'star of Bethlehem' spring flowers.  Looks like they  haven't bloomed as yet.  Just 2 clumps in a spring wet area.

You all remember my fondness for small containers and little sprays of early flowers?   Well my long time friend, Dawn, went one better.  Finding and using what she had on hand to create a one of a kind spring arrangement in a one of a kind container.  check it out!

Yes that is a used shotgun shell.  Dawn called it the 'redneck' vase.  I call it very inventive!
