Hi everyone! It’s Millie & Walter here. We’re joining a special Nature Friday and helping Marg celebrate her birthday. Marg is a special Blogville friend who helps lots of kitties. We are going to show you some of our early spring flowers.
Let’s see what’s blooming in our yard.
We have two different color of witch hazel bushes in our yard. Since this is the first thing that blooms in our yard the insects flock to it for nutrition.
A honey bee works on the yellow witch hazel.
Even the flies were working the witch hazel.
Here is a little video of the bees and flies enjoying the witch hazel.
If you can’t see the video you can go here to view it.
There is also an orange version of witch hazel.

The only other flower we have blooming right now are our Chionodoxa bulbs.
Blue Chionodoxa
White Chionodoxa
These little flowers are all around a little mound at the back of the yard where we had to cut down an ash tree.
The ash tree stump is where we did our modeling for these pictures.

We hope Marg and all of our visitors enjoyed seeing some of the flowers we are lucky to have blooming so far. If you want to add your birthday wishes to Marg you can pop over to the Zoolatry blog and leave your comments there. As usual we’re way behind many of our friends in the flowers that are blooming in our yard but there are some daffodils that are springing up out of the ground and may be blooming soon.
We are joining the LLB Gang for their Nature Friday Blog Hop. You should pop over to their blog to see all the other posts.
