Nature Notes: Tulips and Robins
These two wet tulips are relaying the weather we have in New Jersey today.
The pink petals of my neighbor’s dogwood are showing off.
Yesterday I spotted this robin in a tree. Do you think he spotted me?
Today in the gray I saw two birds in a tree – the left bottom one is a robin. Can’t make out the right one – he’s so far off! Michelle suspects the one on the right is a “she” robin – the males have the brighter breast. Mating season?
We still have a bunny rabbit living in our backyard.

Lovely photos of the flowers and the birds. It is wonderful to seeing all the flowers blooming and hearing the birds singing.

I love the way the tulips look with raindrops on them. Also great shot of the robin redbreast.
Andrea says
How so beautiful those yellow tulips are with those blue background flowers! I love them.

The blue ones are grape hyacinths.
Andrea says
thanks Leora for commenting in my blog too. I figured those bluish flowers are grape hyacinths, which i personally saw only once yet.

I love the idea of flowers serving as weathermen! :-)

A lovely series. I like the pink petals; a very artistic shot. As for the robin the way he is looking I don't think he spotted you, unless you had climbed that tree. :-)
We have some grape hyacinths too.
Michelle says
Rain and more rain here...beautiful with the drops on the tulips. I think that is a pair of robins. The males have the brighter breast and they are getting together now...

Oh, so it *is* a girl robin. Makes sense, given their proximity.
Please leave a comment! I love to hear from you.
