First Blooms of 2021!

Springtime Irises in my backyard.

Spring has sprung! As the earth gets closer to the sun, the great greening has just begun!

This is what I love about springtime. Yesterday I was walking through my backyard evaluating the amount of spring cleanup needed this year (a lot). As I was walking I was looking down at the ground for signs of life (spring messengers), and that’s exactly what I found!

Iris bloom.

A patch of beautiful little Iris flowers popping up! It reminded me that green wasn’t the only color returning for the warm season.

According to Wikipedia; “The Iris (plant) takes its name from the Greek word for a rainbow, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of the rainbow, Iris.”.

I would like to encourage you to get out in nature, and explore your own local area. Bring a camera along, take a look around, and don’t forget to keep an eye the ground!
