Nature Photo (email) - spring IS coming!?

If you live in the northern US or in Canada, you've probably had enough of winter. Right?! Well, for this swap you'll have to get outside and take some pics of nature. Hopefully with a view to spring. If you're lucky enough to live somewhere warm (or where it is getting warmer), show us. We need something to say that spring is coming and warmer days are ahead!

Take 3 pictures of something in nature that makes you happy. It can be anything. Melting snow, a tree getting new leaves, flowers, birds. Let's share what we see outside every day and makes us feel like we are at home.

Newbies welcome with a completed profile. Everyone else, no 1s or unexplained 3s in 2014.

As long as you get 3 nature shots, please rate a 5. I will angel of course, but really hope I won't have to. These email photo swaps are easy -- no postage costs and a quick rating, so don't flake!

Sorry about the picture above. For some reason this is the only photo that my iPhone would let me upload. Technology!
