One of my favorite times of the year in South Texas is Spring.  Typically from early Mid-March to Mid-April everything is green, the baby birds are chirping, butterflies are everywhere and the wildflowers are in full bloom!

This spring my parents’ ranch was in full bloom …

A family of ducks took over the back pond …

Red birds were in the trees …

The fields were green …

The tanks were filled with turtles …

And the fields were covered in the wildflowers …

The butterflies were fluttering ….

Patrick, too, enjoyed exploring the fields but we never could quite get settled down for a picture in the flowers…
