Early spring in Kuban

Hello, my dearest friends! In March, nature gradually begins to revive after hibernation. However, we have in Krasnodar, snow for a long time and did not stay. For the winter we managed to catch a couple of times, and then immediately melted. To share winter pictures failed :-)

And now, we can say that the spring in the Kuban is not in a hurry, last year at this time everything was blooming and smelled.

This is a monument to the soldiers-liberators, which is located opposite the city garden Park.

The trees are still bare, only some of them began to appear the first buds. But the bushes have already felt the arrival of spring and dress up in bright clothes :-)

This forsythia often blooms earlier. So this year while other inflorescences and leaves are still waiting for warm days, it has already changed.

The name of this shrub was given in honor of the botanist William Forsythe, who first saw this plant is in buds and immediately drew attention to it.

Her yellow buds always appear before the greens. And at first you can see a sort of Golden ball. If you do not form a crown, just cutting twigs, you get a pretty beautiful composition.

The Park is about to appear and tulips. In the meantime, you can watch the pigeons and larks.

Here only the last failed to take a picture. Too much nimble :-)

The main emphasis was on trees and shrubs.

And here and there are autumn leaves and cones.

There, here comes the first green grass.

Already the rose-bushes look different. Probably in a month or two, we will see their fragrant buds.
