It was a beautiful spring day.
Clear and breezy.
If you turn your back to the homes looming immediately behind you, you can almost forget that you’re in the midst of suburbia.
Lots of yummy pastries and…something with corn and mayo on it.
There’s one yard that always has a really nice wildflower display.
They even had these red poppies, which are pretty unusual.
Neighborhood watch. He never blinks!
Calling card.
…with a couple of perfect Kentucky Derby roses! They weren’t omens or anything, because in spite of my month of studying, my handicapping most definitely did not come up smelling like a rose.

Just a bee doing helpful bee stuff.
Poppies…
Protea…
The water lilies were lovely.
It was a nice afternoon of flower-peeping at Sherman Gardens with a good friend.

A nice cool day on the trail…
There were lots of flowers, even though the superbloom is fading…
Even the humble little blooms at the side of the path are beautiful…
The cactus flowers were just about ready to go off…
A golden poppy…
So I have these binoculars that are supposed to be able to attach to your camera so you can really get good zoom shots. This is the best picture I was able to get, lol!
A pair of nosy beagles…
