The day was sunny, but cool, and I was checking on the two geese staying at our pond. As usual, I had my camera ready to photograph the many changes of springtime. The first photo will be a guessing game with the answer at the end.

At the shallow end of the pond a large bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) was enjoying the sun while trying to stay warm.



At the far end of the pond, near the woods, the wild blueberry bush (Vaccinium corymbosum) was in full bloom.
