Glorious contrails with first light earlier this week.

The "early bird" migrants are returning - last week the turkey vultures and red wing blackbirds arrived. Today the cedar waxwings were seen high up in the trees waiting for the go ahead to swoop down and pick last summer's viburnum berries which have been waiting all winter for their arrival.
Witchhazel.
I don't know what this is. We found it growing by a creek and took a very small "pocket-sized" division. I liked it because it had very large leaves and must like wet places because it was by a small waterfall. I planted it by my goldfish pond and WOW - it really took off. Imagine my surprise when it flowered last spring. Early. And with small flowers close to the ground. Yellow is such a great, great "welcome to spring" color, isn't it.
