Spring Preview

Spring Preview



Spring is a week away and the signs of the season are everywhere. Crocuses are blooming all over New York City.

The cardinals seem suddenly more active and vocal. Same for the blue jays. They seem busy and preoccupied.

I’ve been able to get close enough to photograph them, which is unusual.

The bees are hard at work already. Red-eared slider turtles are back basking on the rocks at The Lake in Central Park.
