Waiting for spring
Last week when I was out walking around Southlake Hospital in Newmarket, I spied a few evidences of springlike wishful thinking. It was still cold but the woman in the dark red jacket was out dreaming of warming weather...or so it looked like to me. Moving clockwise, two mallards searched areas in and around a creek for a suitable nesting spot; a Canada goose considered taking a cool, fresh swim; a woman swept winter street sand away from the entrance to her driveway, a mallard swam in between sheets of ice, and lots of snow melted alongside a creek.

Beautiful shots!
It doesn't quite feel like spring yet....
Spring is having arrival problems this year. Your flowers in bloom give me hope.
hope some warmer weather is arriving!
I thought we were getting there, but at 22 degrees this morning, I am not so sure!
Happy Sunday to you!
Yay, spring is on it's way.
Dearest EG CameraGirl;
Wow; Kind of sweet captures of awaiting spring!!! Your beautiful picture of snowdrops gives us warm feeling♡♡♡
Thank you so much for your comment and I thought you are right♪
Today we have STRONG wind and rain. Poor cherry blossoms, they are so transient.
Sending you Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Yea, spring is finally here! I love the pretty snowdrops! Wishing you some warm and sunny weather.. Have a happy week!
It looks cold and bright but certainly there are signs of Spring to see.
Beautiful springlike scenes. Yes,it is here.
Our weather looks to be similar. Traces of snow in the city, more out this way. Flowers pushing upwards.
I haven't seen any snowdrops yet, but I think they are probably out there. Looks like spring weather will be there soon. We are supposed to get some today. My fingers are crossed.
These are good times, when the dream of spring begins to form and blossom across the land. The air is fresh and it's good to be alive.
Your collage is very nicely done!
Clearly, good things are coming to those who wait.
The promise of spring is best when its kept. And it seems that your wishes will soon be heard. Lovely images of the transitional period.

I still haven't seen any snowdrops!
Despite everything I know about weather and climate it still comes as a surprise to find that the seasons progress in different ways in different lands.
Well yes, it obviously is!
Absolutely adore snowdrops!

I love the Snowdrops and your collage.
It is funny being in BlogLand...I see the Southern bloggers posting their flowers and spring porches and talking about planting this and that...and here, spring is just mostly still at the dirty and mud season, lol..so I would say it IS spring, but it's just not anything to enjoy at this point..seeing your snowdrops helps immensely :)
These are all good shots and I love seeing the snowdrops. Mine didn't bloom this year. I fear I let the honeysuckle overrun the area where they used to come up.
I think spring is here....kind of/sort of/maybe....lol
The snowdrops are beautiful. It's good to see the snow melting. Real spring will be here soon.
Beautiful signs of spring. I love it when the snowdrops appear.
It is on it's way isn't it! Thank goodness. MB
Spring was always the shortest season in Toronto. It's like you skip from snow to heat in the span of 10 days. :) Glad to see things are warming up.
Good wind up for the end of winter. Surely it will soon be spring in your area.
Darla
it is spring alright :)
It's spring here so I hope yours is not too far behind.
We're finally starting to see some signs of spring too. The snowdrops are beautiful! Hope things are going well for you.
Yea!!!! Finally we are seeing spring... Love the mosaic..happy dance...Michelle
It looks like it is trying. It has been pretty springlike here this week.
