feathers and flowers

Just downloaded pics from my phone - only problem with a camera phone...it collects pics 'cause it's so handy.
I have a couple from our Vancouver Olympics trip and some signs of spring


They had several eagle statues spread through the downtown area, with plaques saying what they were supposed to represent. Each one was painted differently, and each were vertically oriented - the bird had wings stretched up and down instead of sideways. There were notes saying they were going to be auctioned off (kinda like the Pigs on Parade that Seattle does periodically...but these were more attractive, obviously:)
Here are two:







and after we got back to Seattle we have seen more spring color appear. The latest have been these :
white crocuses



and muscari (grape hyacinth)



I also took pics of my spreading regular hyacinths (double the number of bulbs planted, at least) but the pics didn't come out ...maybe later
anyway, spring (and spring cleaning) is in the air! :)
