I might live in Australia, where the seasons are upside down, a somewhat moot point if you are Australian, but I am always acutely aware just when Spring has sprung in the Northern hemisphere. That is because the Northern ‘hemispherians,’ often get so excited about the first appearances of spring, their shouts are heard all the way ‘Down Under.’
This time of year, my inbox gets spammed with messages of glee and endless photos from the North, of the first snowdrops buds, or blades of greenery that poke their head through the final remnants of snow.
I can’t say I blame them for having this Spring zeal, as I suspect they are glad to feel some warmth, while I am glad to have a break from the relentless heat. I thought we might celebrate the onset of Spring by making it this week’s Friendly Friday prompt. If you live in the Southern hemisphere, where Spring blurs into Summer, and thence into Autumn, you may have other photos to choose from that make for a different interpretation of the theme. It is entirely up to you.

Something to Ponder About 
The day before this challenge was posted (call it “Thoughtful Thursday”), I posted a photo and haiku with some offbeat feelings of spring:

But I do love the bright colors epitomized by your sunflower photos and the enthusiasm of a bird that likes to sing loudly at my bedroom window, roughly when I should get up anyway.

Sunflowers and a singing bird? That is indeed the arrival of Spring.

It is totally okay to post. We don’t have any deadlines for Friendly Friday. I thought I replied to you earlier, but the net connection must have dropped out, as I see no reply here.
