As the old saying goes, "April showers bring May flowers." This spring we've had lots of showers, so now we can show off those beautiful flowers!

The sun is shining, flowers are blooming and the grass is getting greener. Winter's finally loosening it's grip, giving us a glimmer of hope and a hint of the good weather we can enjoy just as much as our flocks.

What are you waiting for? Get out there and show off your gorgeous new perennials you bought at the farmer's market! Or the daisies that popped up in your yard unexpectedly! Or the roses you've been hiding in the greenhouse while you wanted for winter to go away.

Snap photos of the beautiful flowers (or weeds!) in your yard or garden, and enter them in this contest for a chance to win a great prize for yourself or a friend!

Animals and/or humans are allowed in the photos, but the flower(s) must be the star of the photo. Weeds are allowed as well. As a BYC member once said, "who says weeds can't be beautiful?"

It's easy to enter, just reply to this thread with photos of a flower or flowers.

Prizes - TBD

(Hopefully this is ok? It was at a garden)View attachment 3792958
Of course it's ok! That looks like an awesome garden to visit.
Not an entry. Just sharing my Sensation Lilac. View attachment 3792983
That is quite the sensation! I can't wait for my lilac to bloom; I think it's going to pop open sometime this week.
What kind of tree is that? It's gorgeous.
Most of my favorite flower photos seem to be lost to the wind 😔
But, here's a few that I'll enter for now!

I love flower photos from behind 😄
Such a unique perspective! I love the little guy just hanging out.
Beautiful. :love Daisies don't grow around here, and I miss them. They're so simple yet so pretty.
Wonderful contrast of the red against the brown and green. Love it.
How pretty! That's definitely one of my favorite views in spring.
