I spent yesterday and today outside doing a Spring cleanup in the yard.  So nice to be out today especially in the sunshine.  The garden is fine after winter.  I noticed two casualties but that happens.

 

Swings are up, the yard is officially open for Spring 2021.  S

You'll keep busy with your lovely surroundings. Have fun. Your yard statues are amazing.

@Lilysmom1  The first tall, stately statue is stunning! Perfect location. Such a gorgeous retreat from the hurried world. Enjoy relaxing at home this spring, summer and fall in such beauty.

@BirkiLady , I needed a bit of height so the tire was the right size lol!  S

Our trees here are budded and have tiny leaves.  We must be about a month ahead of you.  I'm in no rush for summer.

@Kachina624 @Desertdi , here is one shot that never made the photos above.  It is copper shaped into feather form by a metal artist I visited a week ago.  She has some lovely pieces.  I half think she should do a mermaid for me...

 

@Kachina624 , we are a good five weeks away from leafed out trees.  S

@Lilysmom1    Lovely.  Is that copper treated so it won't tarnish? It would be beautiful inside.
