Our backyards are filled with the awakening of spring -- flora and fauna. The purple trillium is really looking nice. The leaves are much bigger and differently shaped than the white trillium.
The white trillium is just peaking this week and are all over our back "woods" as well as our neighbor's.
The next door neighbor has beautiful bleeding hearts back in his naturalized area. You may remember that his gardens were part of the Rochester garden tour last year and we had a couple of hundren people coming through.
Joe has bird feeders as well as suet to bring many birds. I think this is a Hairy Woodpecker male as he seemed a little large for a downy but I could be wrong here.
A sure sign of spring is that the Goldfinches have their mating plummage and were enjoying treats at the feeder. There were also some purple finches there as well today.
