Of course and it is the simple things that makes life extraordinary. -Paolo Coelho
Beautiful quotes Judy.
In our sophisticated life we mostly forget about simple things that surround us and their beauty, like this little clover flower.
Your new header photo is a fantastic composition. I can't figure out what that is in the middle of the road but it suggests a mail delivery system from ancient times. Am I right?
Take care of this photo, it's a winner.
There are lots of beauty closer to the ground. They are all mother nature's creations. Great photos.
Lovely! Can't wait for the buzz of the bees and scent of wildflowers!
look up and look down, that is where we find the beauty, the hidden beauty.
Last night, when I returned from work, I could actually smell the grass coming back to life :)
Love that header, very interesting. And that bee is quite cute looking.
Ahhh, I love simple things...one of my favorite quotes is 'Live simpley so that others may simply live' :)
Lovely pictures and quotes, as usual. I also love your header picture, it's so good!
gorgeous flowers!
lovely blog!
happy weekend :)

I love your flower photos!
I think the splendor below, above and within you is a gift we fail to grasp. Just as I also think that the simple, the complicated, the unexplainable exciting part of life is just as real and sweet.
Have a great weekend!
PS. I'm glad you reminded us of Natl Love Your Pet Day. I love my animal friends 24/7 but a special day for this means one of my dogs will bark about it! ;-)
Mom says she agrees...we should all take time to smell the posies!!!
You had snow yesterday we had 78 degrees which broke the old record of 76...IN FEBRUARY....
Happy Saturday to you all,
Hugs Madi and Mom
Your header photo speaks volumes to me. Beautiful. Your quotes and photos are so good.
Have a great weekend..Gail, Mistaya and Maggie
I agree, small things are often missed. Imagine what that flower looks like to the bee.
Great photos and quotes! Thanks for participating!
I've seen several bee pictures today. It must be spring somewhere, but it is still February here.
Beautiful photos, especially the second one!

I LOVE the way you change your roles from Squirrel Queen to Queen Bee!!!
simply wonderful! I am here from Freda's voice blog
Excellent macro shots - love the sun's reflection in the bee's eyes!
How beautiful!
Cheers and have a nice week ahead.
Interesting, unusual, beautiful flowers...especially that first one!
The simpler we keep our lives, the happier we become. It is after all all the little joys strung together that make the most splendid necklace that neither weighs us down, nor can be stolen away
Ah, to be like that bee!
gorgeous photos! and the quotes are perfect!

So pretty!
Blooms of Syclamen, have a blessed Sunday!
Very nice shots, and the quote is so true.
Wonderful macros of the clover.. and the bee! Clover flowers are much underrated; where would we get all the wonderful clover honey we enjoy if the bees could not feast on their nectar? A lovely post.
The little things?
The little moments?
They aren't little.

Lovely pictures!!
Beautiful shots! Lovely quotes too!
I can hardly wait for warm weather and bees and bugs and flowers. :)
It's all the simple things in life that make it so pretty!
Your pink clover is outstanding! It's a bothersome in the summer, but how I miss seeing them now..
How gorgeous! Simple pleasures are the best.
These are beautiful macros. The colours are superb.
Very pretty. Judy, what I wouldn't give for a glimpse of spring.
Beautiful pictures, Judy..... I have learned so much since I started blogging and doing photography... I see things which I never saw before....
Have a great week.
Hugs,
Betsy
