So great to see the early Spring colors emerging after a very cold winter with snow!
We took a short walk at a national park near the mountains to see what we could find.
I decided to place this post in the #wednesdaywalk channel of my good friend 
And of course we were not disappointed.
It's early days yet as the 1st of September was our official Spring day amidst a lot of rainy days, but I have a feeling that this year a special bloom will explode on all of the fields!
Here's some early samples on show!
Once again I have to admit that I am not a flower expert, but yes like most of us, I love their colors. I am more of an animal, birding and insect man. But nevertheless we all love nature don't we?
This pink color above is what happens when you are in a hurry and you press the wrong button on your camera 😁
But I liked it and I hope that you do too.
Thankfully I got the same Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui) butterfly on another flower!
Now this guy above is not a bee, although he dresses himself as a bee. He is actually a type of Horse fly.
He is of the family "Tabanidae" and his scientific name is "Rhigioglossa". They are all over the Western Cape here during the Spring season.

I am looking forward to sending you many more colors during our Spring season and of special interest to me are colors of the large Canola blooms.
Until next time then I salute all of you!
And That's All Friends!
I leave you you all with this below!
