Our world is full of circular patterns; as some things end, others begin. Tell us a story of a New Beginning.
These Croci are a good sign that spring has sprung in Montgomery Township. I think I'll go for a hike in the Sourland Mountain Preserve this weekend. I'm sure I can find some early spring wildflowers.

Every Spring, these beautiful white petals appear on trees in the woods in my neighbourhood. I see them all over Montgomery Township. The white petals covering the sparse green of the trees stand out in contrast to all the fresh green of the other trees in the wood.
On Saturday, I stopped along Salisbury Road and pulled out my camera and tripod. I saw some white behind a thicket and ventured to get those shots. I was a little concerned when my tripod was jammed, and my shirt got snagged by some thorny shrubs. But I pushed through to get to the trees growing on the slope of the bank of the stream.
These trees are dogwood. I'm unsure, but I think this specimen is Cornus florida. It's native to eastern North America. The flower petals are larger than some other dogwood in the area.
