I meant to post this a couple weeks ago but I had some technical issues. I think there are olny a few things more beautiful than a blooming almond tree. I think the pictures speak for themselves...
(If anybody would like to have the full resolution images let me know and I will send them)

Anybody noticed the Hummingbird  Hawk-moth?

Beautiful! And you did a great job capturing the insects. I'm sure looking forward to spring reaching here.

Beautiful pictures! 

Very nice!  Thank you for sharing the pictures.

Thanks guys! Now that I have a new camera I will be sharing more pictures as they come...

Last couple of days we drove from Las Vegas to home in the NW.  Spent most of a day up the California valley seeing thousands and thousands of acres of almonds in bloom.  Also saw acres of orchards torn down, probably because of the drought the last few years.

Thanks for the beautiful pics. Do you have the opportunity to take pics of local people milling and using olive wood ?  thanks  Rob

 Nice pictures. That is one heck of a camera. Thanks

Thanks! My camera is a Panasonic FZ-2500. It was a bit pricey but I think it was a good investment...
