Tulip time

This is the time when the tulips are blooming. Even though not many of them can be found in my area... still some of them are just beautiful. Aren't they?

 

Chihuly in Botanic garden

Botanic garden is a great place to spend some time looking at the flowers and plants. But what if we combine nature and man made stuff? I am thinking about glass...

 

Warm days...

The Spring is here, no doubts... Every day is a bit warmer than the day before... Every plant is waking up and more and more flowers are opening up... Isn't it the best time of the year?

 

It is HERE!

How do we know the Spring is here? Many things I guess... but one of the most obvious signs is the dandelions... When you can see their yellow crowns everywhere, that's how you know if the Spring is just across the threshold and ready to visit ;)

 

Independence Pass and Buena Vista

If you are bored at home and like to have some fun... you always can drive somewhere. Driving up to the mountain is a special treat and let's have some fun today. Let's go and see the second highest paved mountain pass in Colorado - Independence Pass

 

One bug show

A few days ago we were talking about favorite (and not) insects and I decided, probably this is the one. And as this is my favorite, let's make it shine and bring as many pictures of it, as we can.

The first time I found this bug, I wasn't sure if I was taking a picture of a small sliver or some creature. I was looking at Lavender Thrift, an amazingly attractive blooming bush when I saw something behind the flower... I looked at this something through my lens and almost dropped it. It was a bug... but... oh my, I've never in my life seen anything like this.
