I love how this tree appears against the bright, blue, afternoon sky. I daresay this makes me think something is missing………….What could it be? Yes, the buds. I have a feeling they are on their way quite soon. Until then, I’ll be watching for signs of Spring. 🙂
The expectation of spring in these parts can be quite a challenge. So much more appreciated when it finally arrives.

Why happens that with this buildings. I live in North Groningen in the Netherlands. There have to broken down builings because the winning of earth gas causes tears. Many familys have difficult times through this evident. The NAM daughter of Shell has to pay much money to pay this familys, because their homes have broken down. They cannot live in this houses anymore. A nice day.

It is a wonderful tree which waits on the spring. It is beautiful to see how these trees go through the seasons. Yes endly the spring comes. But now it is very cold outside. It is the coldest day in the Netherlands. Many flower bulbs have now a hard time. In the Netherlands we did not have a hard winter. That was else with you. Maybe you can see the first beginning of leaves over 2 weeks, A nice weekend.

I love watching the silhouettes of trees against the sky for the little bobbles at the end of the twigs which mean spring is here. I am an obsessive tree-watcher!
