Today's Flower........

Now technically these are not flowers, they are buds on a tree, a maple tree, but they do look like little flowers when you get a closer look at them, just click on the photos to enlarge them.  I couldn't get a closer shot, and it was a dull day on Saturday.........

That's how my maples looked at the beginning of the week. After a few days of warm weather, there are baby green leaves now. Dull day or not, these are nice photos, Gill.
