Bird on forsythia branch

Another welcome sign of Spring: the birds are back, carrying nesting materials or singing among the blooms.

I can't believe the blossoms. There's just a light sprinkling of blooms in my part of the world.

Gorgeous shot Lulu!! (along with the Friday magnolias that I missed) ... as LOLPasa mentioned, I'm loving your Spring photos. The little bird looks so content in the center of those beautiful forsythia branches (I would be too! :) Happy Monday...

Thank you so much, I hope everyone's week is off to a great start, and Spring is springing for you too! (Or Autumn for down under friends!)

Jude, this is so beautiful. I love the way he blends right in with the yellow, yet is perfectly visible. Really wonderful shot.

Happy Monday to you! xo.

This bird turned to show his best profile for his portrait. He looks dapper against a forsythia background.

Brilliant colour! I have two forsythias in my yard. As soon as they start flowering, I know that spring has really come.
Have a great spring time!

I don't blame the bird for wanting to be in amongst the forsythia!
