Spring Equinox / Ostara

Spring Equinox
Ostara

Yesterday, we celebrated
The Spring Equinox/Ostara, or
 better known as the First Day of Spring!

Spring is a time for celebration. It's the

time of year when we can get out of the 

house and enjoy the fresh air, smells 

and beauty that comes with Spring.

It's a time when we begin our planting and

reconnecting with Mother Earth after a 

long and cold winter. It's a time

for rebirth, renewal and regrowth.

How did you celebrate Spring Equinox/ Ostara?


It was another beautiful day with a
temperature of 84 degrees.


I started out by making a birds nest
materials bag. I used the mesh bag
that my onions came in.  I then filled
the bag with dryer lint, hair from our
hairbrushes and I was finally able
to use all of the scrap yarn pieces
from left over crochet projects.


I crocheted a chain into the mesh bag
to secure it shut, then wrapped the
chain around a nice and thick
tree branch and secured it once more.


Now my feathered friends have a
nice variety of building materials
for building their new nests
this Spring.


Perhaps I'll see my scrap yarn
built into one of the birds nests
during one of my walks.
How wonderful that would be to
know that I had a part in helping
to create a safe and cozy nest for
the new bird family.

After I hung the new bird nest
material bag, I took a little stroll
along the side of my house.

I love this tree!

My Rose Bush

Ahh, I see that the squirrel

has discovered the peanut 

that I left for him. 

Just Beautiful!

I've always loved these. Most people

call them weeds, but they're still pretty!

These were always my number one

favorite weed since I was little.

Yesterday, there was only one 

Grape Hyacinth in bloom,

now look at all these new blooms!

I'm not sure of the name of these adorable 

little flowers. They are white with a pink

lines and tint all around the petals.

Now, it's time to take a nice country drive!

 Driving out of our small town.
Look how pretty the tree is.

These are the most beautiful trees!

The farmers are working on their farms

Looks like this farmer is getting a head start

with his fields!

Driving past the creek!

This driveway is lined with

all of the beautiful white trees.

Here's an old one room School House!

Life is coming back!!

How beautiful these trees are!

The horses were out grazing in their fields!

These umbrella shaped trees are adorable!

That concludes today's tour!

Thanks for joining me!

See you next time!!
