There are many different kinds of Woodpeckers here in North America, and you can attract them to your yard with suet feeders.

I hope you are having a good week!

Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day, March 2024

The northeast corner of Mississippi, USA zone 7b

I have three colors of Wild Violets.

.

These came up through the straw that I use to protect my Elephant Ears during the Winter.

Spring Snowflakes, Leucojum vernum

Most of my Daffodils bloomed halfway between Bloom Days, but I still have a few.

.

Our Pear Trees are blooming!

I know this small tree is a type of Magnolia, but I am not sure which one it is.

Flowering Almond is a small ornamental shrub.

Spirea

Kerria japonica

I am not sure that the Maple Tree seed pods qualify as blooms, but they are as pretty as any bloom I have!

Happy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!
