And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbor:
“Winter is dead.”
~ A.A. Milne
Finally winter is dead. Every now and then you can still find it lurking in the shadows and shade when a cold wind blows but the plants and birds clearly know the truth of the matter and for time being winter has had its fill and it is the turn of spring now.
The quote is moving (and surprisingly by Milne!) and the crowning glory of the photo is the spider’s thread.
