Springtime Yellow and White

It was going to rain later in the day, so I jumped on the bike early in the morning for a short 20 mile ride.  I went along one of my favorite roads - some good hills, marshes, woods, meadows, pastures, red-barned farms, old houses, creeks, covered bridges, and little traffic.

Along the way I noticed that the dominant colors of the wildflowers were white and yellow.


A dense cluster of Trilliums and Sedums.


Dandelions


Marsh Marigolds


Winter Cress

As the summer comes, more colors will appear.  I'll keep an eye out for the change of flower colors.  Enjoy!

Hi Uncle Tractor! Thanks as always, for visiting my blog. I was just checking out your pics and had no idea VT was experiencing flooding, too. Your wildlife shots a few posts down are amazing. Kayaking always seems so serene. I used to canoe years ago... You asked about my camera. I have a 3 yr old (?) Canon PowerShot S5iS. It's considered "point and shoot" but a lot of reviews say it's like a combo of a point and shoot and a DSLR because of its features and size. I love it. I do wish the lens opened up a bit more so I could get more limited depth of field. It also has a "super macro" setting which I use often for those closeups. I've always loved Canons. Had an Olympus digital yrs ago that was just horrible!
