In this area at least, Mother Nature celebrated St. Patrick's Day by sportin' the green.
The weeping branches of willow trees all but glowed with the green of fresh growth.
Daffodils, hyacinths, and lilies pushed green leaves up through garden mulch and ground cover.
Lilacs and fruit trees are all sporting buds of rich and royal green.
Recognizing its possible to have too much of anything, Mother Nature made sure to throw in some splashes of contrasting color - whites and pinks of flowering trees; yellows and blues of annuals; and the colorful pinwheels of pansies.
Aye, truly it was a lucky day to be out and about takin' in the glories her highness blessed us with.
