The Colors of Spring



Spring is my favorite time of year here in Kentucky.  Growing up in Buffalo New York spring was slow coming. 

Here in Kentucky it happens pretty fast and way earlier than up north. 

The grass is so green and we get those first bursts of color in March and April.  My daffodils, phlox and lilacs have already come and gone. 

But there is still plenty of color popping up in my 1 acre farm.



 

I also saw my first humming bird.  So out goes the feeders.  We only get a few varieties of humming birds here in Kentucky.  But they are fun to watch and if you provide them with food they will return year after year.

National Geographic has a terrific show about these birds.  Here is the link to their web page and a brief video about hummingbirds.
