Sunshine on a Forsythia.

March 15th: Spring.

Well, spring must officially be on the way as our Forsythia bush has started to bloom. I always look forward to this event as once fully covered in these gorgeous, stunning, tiny flowers, the yellow bounty is a sight to behold.

A lovely shot. This bush is doing well though- I posted a shot about a week ago of my first forsythia flower and it's still the only bloom that has ventured out!
