Spring 春眠不覺曉

Spring is finally here after all!! Yay!!  Sprouts are everywhere, and I took this opportunity to take some pictures of the greens before they're fully grown.  I didn't go too far to get these pictures, mostly from my Mom's backyard or somewhere nearby that's all.  Some pictures are easy to take, like I just stood in front of a tree and snap; other ones I needed to walked into a 'grassland' to do it...I was surrounded by all sorts of insects and bugs...  Honestly, that freaks me out!!  @@

Tulip sprouts.  Brown & green, a very big contrast here.

I think this is another kind of tulip sprouts?!  Found these at Mom's garden.

I forgot what kind of flower this is, but I found this at Mom's garden as well.

Fresh greens emerged from the ground.

Tulips again I think?!

Buds, found this from the little garden nearby.

Here is another shot at the bud.

Buds again, but its not green yet...

I don't know what kind of flower this is, but it looks like dried and dead already.  I wanna get a closer shot at this thing here but I can't reach the tree...

Grass sprouts are everywhere, just pay attention to what's around you in the wild and you will see them.  =)

This flower is dried and dead, but it still looks cool huh?!

Took this shot from a pine tree.  I didn't dare to get any closer 'coz I'm afraid a spider will jump out from no where....

This must be some sort of dried flowers from last year.

I wonder what they look like when they're 'fresh'!!

Here is another shot at the same plant, all dried and dead.

Bend down, look close and you will see life everywhere.

Not only sprouts you see...spiders, bugs, flies are everywhere too!!  That's enough, I'm leaving this 'grassland'!!

Pine buds, that's how I call it.

Greens, took this shot from underneath a tree.

Buds from some sort of bushes near Mom's place.

Tulips again.

This one I know:  Autumn Joy!!  =D

Leek flower from last year.

Another specie of pine bud.

Tell me what you see here.  Do you see a pine cone or a spider??!  This spider freaks me out while I was focusing on the pine cone!!  As soon as I saw it, I screamed at the top of my lungs!!  I won't get any closer than this...neh uh!!

This bastard was wandering outside Mom's garden looking for food.

The main purpose of me posting this picture here is not because of the aeroplane...  See those two grey dots in the picture?  It must be something stuck inside of my camera lens.  I cleaned it up with alcohol and things got worse...  I got 7 dots now!!  What should I do?  =(

Most of the above pictures were taken on or before March 18. 

 These ones here were taken on March 22.   Just a few days later and leafs started to grow.

 Here is another shot at the green from another tree.

 Bird nest, you won't be able to see it when all leafs are out.

 These few pictures were taken on March 20 while I was on my way to work.

 Its a foggy day....

Yeah...only if I know where I'm going....
