Easy Breezy Coneflowers

Spring is on the way.  I 've seen robins in the yard, red wing blackbirds at the feeders, and the sandhill cranes are back in the field next to our house.   At the back of our yard we have an area of wildflowers.  We planted milkweed seeds this fall and I hope some of the seeds grow into plants which will attract butterflies.  Even if the milkweed doesn't grow, we always have plenty of coneflowers to attract butterflies and bees.  

When I saw this image from Power Poppy, I wanted to color it and think about the coming summer days.

Before I go I thought I would share a photo of my girls.  This was taken on the way home from the park after a long walk.  They are also happy that the weather is getting nicer so that we can take longer walks and enjoy the outdoors.

Thank you for stopping by!
