Even though I have already seen two hummingbirds at one of the feeders, these feisty little darlings really aren't here to stay yet, but, instead, are only travelers passing through. I have noted through the years that they won't be here to stay until the Buckeye opens. That will be soon.
When we moved to our current house here on the hill, I was loathe to leave my garden down below. It really was a gardener's paradise. I spent time there today - just looking and remembering.
There's a new little Buckeye seedling growing not far from the parent plant I will move it to my garden here. If it should live, the hummingbirds would like it.

Crabapple blossoms are strewn all about, even in the murky waters of the little garden pond that I built so long ago. Salamanders live there now. Back in the day, there was a pretty little waterfall flowing into the pond. I can hear it still...

Salamanders - how lovely. I hope the Buckeye transplants readily.
Our crabapple trees are still in tight bud - they're a picture when they open.
Ah nature, so good for the soul
Rather sad reminiscences today. Is your old garden so far away that you rarely visit? It does sound lovely.
I am sure it is hard to leave a garden you planted and spent lots of time in.

Your garden did sound like a paradise. I miss my old ones too from my other house and wonder what the new owners did with it all. I even had a pond too. Have not seen the hummers here yet and from our weather yesterday of freezing rain they should stay away. Janice
