Traveler, the path is nothing more than your footsteps;
traveler, there is no path, a path is made as you go.
You make the path as you go, and on looking back
you see a trail that never can be walked again.
Traveler, there is no path, only a wake in the sea.

Sky Watch #40
Another Sky Watch all around the world. The team of Sandy, Klaus, Louise, Ivar, Wren and Fishing Guy host Sky Watch for us every week.
My theme for today is Spring Is Wonderful. No more doom and gloom. Spring!!
How nice to see the birds and the buds on the tree! What kind of tree makes those round seed balls?
Thanks for asking that question on my blog. I answered it on my post and in the comments section. It was a good question and I am sure others will want to know the answer. I actually got the idea from TR Ryan in "The Farway, Nearby" blog.
So, no more gloom and doom for you? Well, I have some coming tomorrow!
It does look like a bright and cheerful blue spring sky at your place. Thanks for sharing this pleasant scene with us all and thanks for your kind comments on my post earlier.
You're right, not a bit of gloom there! And those buds look like they're getting ready to burst into leaf!
ReplyDeleteReally nice shots .. love the crow(?) eating the plane tree .. what are those called anyway ... balls?
ReplyDeleteSpring is amazing! Nothing like it at all! New Life! New Beginnings! New Growth! Great captures!
