spring tulips and Lange Duinen Soest, Netherlands

End of winter

It was cold but you can see that Spring is coming in the garden and in nature. Crocusses along the Ankeveense pad and reed there too.

Cevennes, France, orchid heaven

A short break in the Cevennes, in the south of France looking around with a brand-new Crossbill guide to see if this is really an orchid heaven.. it is! And a lot more of course. Here some of the orchids I found and some of them are very difficult to name. Bee-orchid, yellow orchid, passion-tide orchid, early purple orchid, elder orchid , men orchid... and some butterflies, a very special toadstool, iris chamaeiris, praying mantis, Pont du Gard, tree-frog and flamingo's in the Camargue, Allium roseum, Tulipa sylvestris ssp australis... and a lot more that I will put in my database site at Photoshelter

spring is booming

Every day new flowers , early draba, primula, peach and apricot, ladybird on willow, bulbous coridalis and of course the first tulips.

First day of the meteorological spring and it is crocus day :-) All these are taken in my garden or surroundings. More images on http://pa.photoshelter.com/c/wolverlei
