delicate beauties of spring

Two years ago, when I was just starting to drive again after getting the plaster removed from my broken arm, I celebrated by going out and buying two blossom trees. This is the second spring I have had the joy of seeing them bloom, one before the other. This one is the paler pink of the two, so delicate.


And this afternoon I took a wee walk around the back garden and realised how many of the native trees have their unobtrusive small blossoms bursting forth as well.
