An April Day

Things are only impossible until they're not.
Jean-Luc Picard

The sun was warm but the wind was chill.
You know how it is with an April day.
Robert Frost

Please take a few moments and visit Quote It Saturday and Today's Flowers.

A class from one of our local schools is doing a fund raiser to help save our Pioneer Park Aviary. They are using a collage of my photos as part of the promotion. You can see the photos at Pioneer Middle School HERE.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Oh, flowers, lovely. We only have green shoots thus far, but thankfully milder weather.

Beautiful photos! Many of the trees are in blossom now and when the sun shines it feels and looks so summery.
I hope the aviary can be saved.

Morning Ms J and Miss Cindi Lou
Mom and I got a charge out of your comment on today's post. Now we know why the Kitty Krew are so hyper...they are Starbucks junkies...

MS. J what an wonderful event to save the park. Your collage contains some of our favorite bird/fowl pictures. Nature is so colorful we just need to take the time to observe.
Mom wants to know the title of the poem by Robert Frost...she really likes him.
Hugs madi

Sandra said...

up up and away... trees and blue skies, there is NOTHING better, except if there was a baby squirrel. we spent 10 minutes just at day break, to dark for photos, watching a baby squirrel trying to nurse on mama, it was hilarious, he is big enough he should be eating and she was running from him, boy could he scamper, we were laughing out loud and i wished for the sun so i could snap him.

Sandra said...

when the post opened, i actually said out loud, OH Wow...that tree with the blue and a tiny bit of flowers is really stunning and beautfiful to behold. love it

Judy, your photos at the Pioneer Aviary website is very helpful to promote the cause.

The flowers are beautiful to add to the nice quote.

I hope this change of weather help our wildflowers too!
