I moved to Mill Bay on the first of May. But before leaving Courtenay, I took a few pictures. The spring blooms are too much to overlook. Anywhere you point your camera, you can capture big, beautiful blossoms.
Of course, spring isn't restricted to Courtenay and blossoms are proliferous most everywhere on the Island these days. I'm not sure about up further north but we here in the southern part of Vancouver Island are enjoying a wealth of colour overhead and under foot.
The roses are out and tulips have also started opening but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Everything is springing to life to welcome warm, sunny days.
Rustic Mill Bay has some great walking trails. One of them is called the Bunny Trail which is where we went this morning. I caught a few pictures of the trail and the little river passing alongside of it.
If you want to see some of the most adorable dogs on the planet, go for a morning walk on the Bunny Trail.
The official flower of Ontario, Canada is the white Trillium. As it ages, the white Trillium turns pink.
Here's a picture of the Trillium after it turns pink.
Nothing like a nature walk to bring you down to earth, help you forget about all your problems and breathe the salt sea air blown in from the Pacific Ocean. Top it off with a Tim Horton's coffee and what more could you want?
