It's winter and though everything seems to be in hibernation, make no mistake, ... there are silent stirrings! :) I can feel the anxious activity in the air, and see it in the sky! :)
If you look beneath the fallen leaves, you may see flower bulbs already pushing up through the soil! :)
Some winter hardy souls refuse to sleep at all! :)
Others are ready to display bright cheery blooms, - like this witch hazel that's waiting for just the right moment to wow us with her color and fragrance! :)
If you look closely you will see some plants have already begun to stretch and yawn with new signs of life! :) ...
While others have readied themselves and are deciding whether to wait a little longer! :)
Nature wants to show us her bright colors and glorious fan-fair! :)
Below the soil of these flower pots are bulbs that are already stretching to the light! I'm eager to see their sunny faces this spring! :)
The hardy Swiss Chard has slowed but continues to grow in spite of winter's frosty nights! :)
The figs are waiting for nature's signal to reveal their charismatic new leaves! :)
You can see life stirring in the swelling blueberry buds! :)
For now the soil is cold and moist so the garden gate remains closed, but it won't be long until it will be an active location again! All we have to do is take a quick look around to see there are, indeed, silent stirrings! :)
