Spring snow
May 22, 2011
Today was one of those fleeting moments in the garden.
At first I thought my mind was deceiving me….it looked like snow. But, even in Vermont, it should not snow on May 22nd.
In actuality it was a myriad serviceberry petals (from the four Amelanchier canadensis behind the woodshed) being tossed through the air by the wind, and falling to the ground to decorate the spring flowers and new leaves.
Here are some more pictures to remind me of this special moment.
