Forget-Me-Not Signals Spring's Arrival

Another mostly indoor day -- this time adding rain to mosquitoes and midges -- but time well spent in deleting 45GB of photos from my computer after doing double backups for May photos. Also deleted massive amounts from camera cards before backing up. Starting June with some computer memory and clean memory cards! Thank you all for your wonderful response to the two sunset photos -- it's so much fun to be able to share Beaver Island with you, and I do look forward to doing so throughout the summer. Took this yesterday but processed today -- some cropping and a bit of color adjustments.
Gorgeous colour and focus!!

This is lovely Taffy.

Such beautiful color and wonderful detail, Taffy. Sounds like you are making good use of your time. I delete my photos from my card as soon as I put them on my computer. I go through them and delete what I do not want to keep, make folders and back up my computer. I still have too many photos on my computer and have a project scanning old paper photos once they are sorted. I will have to purchase a new camera in the near future. My Sony is scratched on the screen and is getting worse. I found that this is a problem that Sony knew about. I am out of warrantee so have been looking on ebay and will go into a store and see what feels good to me for a replacement camera and do more research to make sure I get a camera I am happy with. Still no Mindy today. We drove around the entire park after walking around the lake and the island in the middle. All geese were there except Mindy. Her friends, the white ducks and gray and white one were there together without her. I really think someone like me that had space took her home. I hope she is ok and happy. Would have loved to have had her for a pet. Will go back once a week and check and see if by chance she has returned and feed the ducks, geese and squirrels.

I'm delighted each time I see a post of these dear little blossoms! We'll have them to greet us up north, and this is my year to get a decent macro shot of them, as well! Try t enjoy your forced lock down and get some rest!
