Touches of Yellow

I was out at one of our local parks this past Sunday to see how the spring colors were coming along. Some of the trees are blooming as you can see from this photo and my header but many branches are still bare. The forsythia is bursting with lovely yellow blooms however.

For more photos visit Freda's Tuesday Takes.

The forsythia are also in full bloom on this side, too. I love the colors that are coming out, with all the rhodies just now beginning to emerge!

Gorgeous. You are a little farther ahead of us. We are just starting to see buds on the trees.

Ginny said...

Lovely, and look how GREEN that grass is!!! Our forsythia here has seemed to last so much longer than it usually does.

This is how it should be looking in my area right now, but spring is just barely waking up now here.

We're slightly ahead of you -forsythia in full bloom, likewise kerria japonica - but it's wonderful to see the flowers, no matter when - such a blessing:-)

Looks like pieces of sunshine perched near taller trees :)

Around here, it's lots of purple (I'm kind of ignorant with most larger plants) and our dogwoods are showing off lots and lots of pinks.

Some of that yellow would look really pretty with it!

I love the burst of yellow from the forsythia bushes! Great capture!

Funny thing, just today I noticed the tiny buds on my forsythia just beginning to open. Aw spring!
