blooms...spring in Paris
...a few photos from this past Sunday afternoon, when we took some kids for their visit to the Arizona Sonora Desert Museum:
My wife and I had never seen hummingbird nests before--so tiny!

Every visit to the Desert museum, we've spent some time in the hummingbird aviary...


...the prairie dog habitat had an unexpected visitor in the enclosure:



...a spiny-tailed iguana, roaming free in the desert. I like his smile--a reptilian toothy grin.
..things in bloom, too. This is a bud of a 'Carl Nielsen sage:"

April in Tucson...can't help but think of April in Paris...
...Exactly ten years ago: early spring, along the Seine, behind Notre Dame:

...later in the spring, rhododendrons in bloom at the Parc de St.-Cloud, near where I lived:
