Spring is Here

Spring has arrived on Gabriola; the flowers are blooming everywhere and the tree frogs are singing night and day... I managed to spot one of the little guys and get a few photos this morning.

Camellia in Bloom

Spring has arrived here on Gabriola, and the Camellia in front of our house has been blooming for the past week or so.  We hear that spring has been late this year, and the flowers and shrubs have been late blooming, but coming from Alberta this is a bit hard to comprehend.

This bloom was right at the top of our tree, and I captured this image from the front porch with a 1,000mm lens (500mm + 2x extender).
