春 🌱

Haru. "Spring"


The angle of the light is changing. The birds are beginning to sing more and more. Raccoons, rabbits, pheasants and the various insects begin to make their appearance in a way and timing no one could predict exactly, but which is reliable all the same. Even the light at the station in the evening has changed. Though the first two days of Spring here in Niigata, Japan were cold and gray, the days are becoming sunny and warm now. It's about time! This winter has been a long one. Let's go outside and take a look around.

They're here! I found some carrot sprouts awaiting me in the backyard garden this morning.

Much work to be done! Lots of fun!

The evenings are becoming gentler and more patient in their approach.

So happy Spring is here! Let's all have a good one!

The beautiful spring came; and when Nature resumes her loveliness, the human soul is apt to revive also.

自然を見て、空気を感じて、春を感じるのが好きです^^

@childcareさん、とてもきれいな言葉ですね。私もそう言う気がする!

know what you're going to grow yet?

Ah yeah man, got a lot planted already. So far: carrots, turnips, spinach, corn, tomoatoes, and beans.
Gonna try for a watermelon or two, as well. Thanks for asking!

Good luck with your garden this year @kafkanarchy84! I am almost ready to get mine started soon!

Congratulations for your favorite season,as your most beautiful people are enjoying greatly.Yes ,long winter seems very long as night of grief .So wish you the spring with most prosperity and energetic one.

Indeed! Wishing you the very same!

Spring the flowers will bloom and the green will flourish. Thailand its summer so everything will be brown, brown, brown, meaning dead.

Lovely backyard you have. Our backyard is cement and now a days unless you bought a semi-d house you won't have a big backyard.

Nice photos, but why the station is deserted ?

Are the cherry blossom trees out yet? Beautiful time of year, especially in Japan.

They're here in Tokyo, but not up where I'm at just yet. Yes, always love this time of year. Very special.

spring! how i love to visit japan and see the cherry blossoms bloom but it seems that i will be able to go there in autumn instead.
