You Know It's Spring When

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Executives
When the goldfinches return to Lake Ridge and leaves break out


Everyone has different ideas about the ideal place to live - that's what makes the world go around. In the case of Arthur and I we enjoy living in a subdivision with 1,200 acres of heavily wooded common area where we live among many of God's other creatures. By the same token Lake Ridge has a population of 38,000 people and all the amenities of a small city. To us it is the best of all worlds in a congested metropilitan area. Actually, we think of it more as an oasis.

Nice bird shot! I had a robin lined up to photo yesterday but didn't have my telephoto lens and I got a midget bird shot. This photo has convinced me to pack the telephoto while wondering around.

Dick and Dixie  There are many similar subdivisions in Northern Virginia with lots of treed common area in the community, not on the outskirts

That is a very good index!  I saw a few colorful robins this morning hopping around.  I hope that is my sign of spring here, even though it is still chilly.

Karen,

It looks like the bright color of that goldfinch is creating quite a splash of color in Lake Ridge.

Glad to see spring is springing your way,

Steve

Beautiful photos Karen!  Our gold finches seem to come a little later in the season, but it is still pretty cold here.  I can't wait!!
